Abstract <p>Based on a comprehensive analysis, this article provides a detailed description of the operating principles of bibliographic services, referred to by the author as “global bibliographic platforms.” It also assesses the impact of such platforms on global research information services and outlines the organizational and methodological implications of implementing such systems. Global bibliographic platforms are defined as a type of automatically generated online information resource reflecting the global flow of scholarly documents and satisfying the full range of users’ bibliographic needs. The technological foundation of global bibliographic platforms is formed by a system of international academic standards (DOI and ORCID), the adoption of which has led to the transition of the process of creating initial bibliographic information from libraries and information centers to publishing organizations, and an API interface that enables the fully automated retrieval of bibliographic information. In the future, information support for scientific research and education will shift toward the use of the described bibliographic platforms, which are capable of providing the highest quality service at minimal cost.</p>
