The establishment of esss is very timely. The increasing use of bibliometrics for funding and evaluative purposes, and in international university rankings, makes it essential for more people to develop a detailed understanding of the disciplines strengths and weaknesses. The contributing partners in this new initiative are to be congratulated for putting together an outstanding program.
