Register your publications

What publications should I register?

Always register all your publications, such as articles, books, book chapters, conference papers etc. Recently employed researchers should also register retrospectively all their publications published during the last five years, regardless of that they are not affiliated to Hanken. This is needed for reporting to Hanken's international accreditations.

How to register publications?

Before adding a new record, remember to check if it is already in Haris. If your co-author or administrative staff has already registered the publication, it saves time and effort for everyone involved. This can easily be checked by searching in the editor when logged in to your account or in the Haris public portal.
 

Adding manually
  • Start to register new research merits by clicking the green button Add new content in the right upper corner in Haris’s administration interface or the plus sign “+” when you hover over the left-hand-side menu Research output.
         or

Adding by importing
  • It is possible to import publications from an online source or from a file from other research information management systems or reference managing systems. Import from a file mainly applies to recently employed researchers who need to register retrospectively all their publications published during the last five years. Please contact haris@hanken.fi for help with retrospective imports.

        

 


The Ministry’s publication types are relied on and the library makes the ultimate choice of the publication type. To decide your paper’s publication type see the instructions by the Ministry of Education and Culture:

Julkaisutiedonkeruun ohje tutkijoille 2023 (luonnos / draft)

Publication data collection instructions for researchers 2021

Julkaisutiedonkeruun ohjeistus tutkijoille 2021

Importing publications from an online source

Instead of adding records manually, you can import publications from online sources. The following online sources are available: Scopus, Mendeley, CrossRef, Ebsco and Fennica. It is recommended to use Scopus, if the publication is available, due to good data quality, but the other online sources can also be used as a complementary sources.

  • Click on the button Add content or plus sign to open the submission guide.
      or
     
  • Select Import from online source in the submission guide, and choose the source.


     
  • Enter appropriate search terms to search for the publication in question. Note that there might be publications that are already available in Haris. These are marked as duplicates. The result list might also include items relating to authors with the same author name as you. In these cases click on Remove to delete the items


     
  • Click the Import or Import and match button to import a chosen record.


     
  • A new window will open to show how the author(s) and affiliation(s) are matched. Click Import and review to check and edit the information. The information does not have to be complete, since the records will be validated by the library. However, please note to add keywords for Areas of strength and Areas of high potential and SDG keywords, if relevant. These keywords are Hanken related only, and they are not added by the library (if not especially asked for in retrospect).
  • Set the correct status for the record (at the foot of the record).
  • Save the record.

Setting up automated search for publications in online sources

You can set up an automated search for publications to be imported. Three databases are scanned for publications that might be affiliated to you: Scopus, Mendeley and Fennica. Scopus is recommended to use as an import source.
The initial scan will search for publications in the last 1,825 days. The consecutive scans will take place every 7 day. The import candidates are shown on your overview page in the right column under the heading Tasks. You can also choose to have an e-mail when import candidates are found.
 

Setting up an automated search

For setting up an automated search start on your personal user overview page. 

1. Click on Edit profile to open the profile editor window.

Importing publications from a file

It is also possible to import publications from a file from other research databases or reference managing systems. This option mainly applies to recently employed researchers who need to register retrospectively all their publications published during the last five years. Especially if you have previously been affiliated with a university using the Pure software, your research outputs can easily be imported.
Please contact haris@hanken.fi for help with importing.
 

  • Click on the button Add content or plus sign to open the submission guide.

The default setting is Published, which links to your article’s status (shown at the bottom bar of the template next to the blue Save button) being set to For approval automatically.

          

Note that only when the publication status is Published and the publication year filled in, can the status of your record be changed to For approval. Other publication statuses will lead status of the record being Entry in progress.
More information about how is my publication’s registration approved in the tab Frequently asked questions about Haris.

Publication information
  • In the section of Publication information, add the information about your article’s original language, title and subtitle, abstract, pages (start and end page), and number of pages if known.

Contributors and affiliations
  • Add co-authors by clicking Add person. Type an author’s name to check if it already exists in the system. If your co-author is not in the system, click Create external person. It is important to add the external author’s association/organisation and especially the country.
           

    Authors should appear in the same order as in the publication. Use the arrows (↑ and ↓) to the right in the template for sorting.
 

Journal
  • Add the journal by clicking on Add journal to search for an existing title. If the journal is not available in the list of results, add it by clicking on Create new journal (books are linked to publishers in the same way). Fill in volume and issue number if known.

Access to fulltext, documents and links
  • In the section Access to fulltext, documents and links, you can add your article’s DOI number and upload a version of your article (usually the author's accepted manuscript (AAM), i.e. the post-print), after clicking Add DOI, open access document or link. You can also add links to your article in other online sources such as Scopus by clicking Add other link.
           


Note a DOI reference in Haris should always start with 10.XXXX, for example, 10.4018/IJESMA.2015100102. Do not add it as https://doi.org/10.4018/IJESMA.2015100102.

Then add the following information (see the image below):

  • DOI, e.g. 10.1000/182
  • choose the Document version of your file (submitted manuscript, accepted author manuscript, proof, final published version, other version)
  • set the level of public access to your electronic version at Public access to file (open, embargoed, restricted, closed, unknown)    
    If there is embargo, add the embargo end date.
  • add license type, if known, in License to document.

 

The Library also checks the publisher’s copyright policy. If the uploaded copy is a version not allowed to be self-archived, the library will contact the researcher to ask for another version of the article to upload in Haris. The library also checks for embargoed journals, and do the settings for possible embargoes.
When the library has approved the record in Haris, the document will automatically be moved to DHanken if there is no embargo. In Haris, the link to the Open Access version in Dhanken is automatically generated. The article is visible in DHanken in the collection publications syncronized from Haris as well as in the subject’s collection.

If there is an embargo period, the document will be moved to DHanken after the embargo end date. The administrator of DHanken has the right to delete the document if it is a version not allowed. In that case the researcher will be informed.

Please also see How to self-archive at Hanken.

Keywords
  • In the section Keywords, choose fields of research by clicking Add keywords. The available list is appointed by the Ministry. Chosen fields (at most six) should describe the publication’s fields of research, not the researcher’s. Those mostly used at Hanken are 511 Economics and 512 Business and Management. Free keywords can also be added, e.g., the keywords used in the article.
  • It is also strongly recommended to add keywords for sustainable development goals (SDG) and for Hanken's research areas of strength (AoS) and areas of high potential (AoHP), if your publication falls in these fields of research. These keywords are used for internal reporting, as well as for the overview and evaluation of the research conducted in these fields at Hanken.

Relations

In the section Relations, you can combine a publication (research output) with other content types that are related to the publication. Click on the content type you want to relate to, for example, a project, and search for the name of the project. Note that the project (or other content type) also needs to be registered in Haris in order to be related to. 

Relations can be created between all content types.

It is strongly recommended that publications are related to projects. With these content types related, the Haris portal gives a full picture of a project, so that research funders and others can see what research outputs the project has produced. See an example of this in the Haris portal. This function can also be used by the departments at Hanken to show their projects on Hanken's web, by linking to the projects in Haris.

Visibility
