Conclusions
Problems of scientometrics depend on in which phase of research or development each scientometric activity is operating. So, discussions mut be very, specific. The golden age when scientoetrics was “little” is gone. Now the age has come when scientometrics must be “big” by being sponsored by policy makeers. However, scientometrics should consider the public around the policy makers and thus grow up to “bigger scientometrics”.
