Each year UWA collects publications data relating to the research publications of UWA staff and students.
Information obtained from the collection is used in the determination of UWA's internal budget and is also reported to the Federal Government for use in allocating the research component of the Commonwealth Operating Grant (formerly called the research quantum).
The collection takes place in the first half of the year, generally peaking in March/April. It is school-based, with an academic staff member as the primary contact and a member of the administrative staff helping to key in the data.
Data entry is undertaken online using an online form.
Publication details are held in the UWA Publications Database and can be viewed by UWA staff (using your Pheme username and password). Copies of the actual publications are not held centrally.
Manuals
A manual is published yearly to outline the process and the criteria for classification of publications.

Weightings
After collection and checking of the data centrally by the Research Assessment Unit, reports are prepared and the publications data is audited by discipline-based groups of UWA academics. This generally takes place in May each year. A kit for auditors is available to outline the processes required in the audit.
From time to time the publications data is audited by external auditors. This occurred in 2001 and 2002.
Once the publications collection and audit is complete, the lists of UWA publications by school are placed online. Copies of these publications are not held centrally and all external enquiries about specific publications should be addressed to the school or individual concerned as listed in the attached:
If you have any questions about the publications collection and audit, do not hesitate to contact Jonathon Crabtree or Lorna Robertson.
