The Academic Information Management System (AIMS) of the CUHK is an one-stop platform for managing research information, and it is integrated with the University's administrative systems for data exchange. AIMS also provides an institutional repository, CUHK Research Portal to make the University's research outputs publicly accessible. The Publication Module of AIMS, together with the Research Portal, was launched in Dec 2016 and the research output records inputted to the previous Online Publication Input System (OPIS) were migrated to AIMS.
This Library Guide focuses on how to input research output records to the Publication Module of AIMS. To learn more about AIMS, please visit its website.
About your AIMS account and how to log in.
Your publication records may already be inputted into AIMS by your CUHK co-authors. In this case, you do not need to create another record in AIMS for the same publication.
You may use the filter or search box to check duplicates.
5 Set Alerts in Web of Science
You will be notified when a new publication is added to the database.
7 Edit Records after Submission
You can still edit the records after submission.
Your AIMS account also provides a researcher profile.
There are three ways to create a new record.
1. Import from external databases (Web of Science (Service Unavailable), Scopus, PubMed, and ORCID). 2. Create manually. 3. Import from files (Bibtex or Endnote format).
You may upload the full text of your article in AIMS.
Once the record status has been changed to "validate", the record will be publicly visible in the Research Portal.
CUHK is implementing a new Institutional Research Information System (IRIS) to replace the research output module of AIMS. To prepare for the legacy data migration, the project team stopped updating the citation counts displayed on the CUHK Research Portal. You may access the latest citation counts by clicking the URL embedded in "Click here for the latest count" and "See more details."
