The author highlights the criteria for assessing library scientist's impact by the number of the publications using citation indices and Hirsch factor. The functions, advantages and drawbacks of citation indices are discussed, as well as the factors to affect Hirsch index. The author examines the credibility of the Russian Science Citation Index data and the quality of journal publications in the HAC list. Standards of originality in the Antiplagiat system and the quality of scientific publications in the library science, bibliography and bibliology are discussed. Some approaches toward scientific work evaluation in the modern library and information science are proposed. The author argues that the quantitative indicators should be combined with the expert assessment.
