Abstract

The aim of this paper is to compile and analyse the support resources prepared by Spanish university libraries to guide and assist researchers in their six-year research-based income supplement applications, which require extensive bibliometric research. The websites of 47 Spanish public university libraries will be analysed. A template was created in Excel as a working tool to facilitate the collection and analysis of information, consisting of 5 columns: name and location, access address (URL), type of access, format, content. The results mention that 78.7% of the libraries analysed have developed resources on six-year periods - call for 2023, in 21.2% none have been found; also the five most frequent contents are noted and that among the formats used for the resources, the biblioguides stand out (56.7%). From the conclusions, we highlight the effort made by Spanish public university libraries to deal with the important changes adopted in the 2023 call, since they are present in more than half of the libraries analysed; also that the study has allowed us to learn about the different proposals to support the request for CNEAI research periods six-year call for 2023 and to specify their characteristics, noting the difference in terms of richness and variety of content. In this way, a first group of four libraries and a second group of seven libraries are identified. This research could be continued in the future by checking the use of these resources by teacher-researchers and their opinions about them.
