abstract = {The document 'Foundations of Narrative Bibliometrics' provides an analysis of the
evolution of scientific assessment, highlighting the influence of manifestos such as DORA and
CoARA in shaping ethical and responsible practices in academia, as well as their assimilation
by Spanish scientific policies. It connects this context with the contributions of evaluative
bibliometrics, emphasising the transition towards a more integrative approach that advocates
for a balance between quantitative and qualitative methods in research evaluation.
Furthermore, it underscores how the Narrative Curriculum has emerged as one of the
fundamental tools in new evaluation processes, as it allows for the description of the
complexity and context of academic achievements. Narrative Bibliometrics is proposed,
defined as the use of bibliometric indicators to generate narratives and stories that support the
defence and exposition of a scientific curriculum and/or its individual contributions within the
framework of a scientific evaluation process. To introduce the reader, it presents, in a non-exhaustive manner, sources, indicators, and practical cases for effectively applying narrative
bibliometrics in various scientific evaluation contexts. Hence, this document is offered as an
introductory tool for evaluators and researchers for a responsible use of bibliometric indicators.},
