Since its establishment in 1995, CREST has produced a wide range of academic publications ranging from books (both monographs and edited collections), chapters in edited collections, peer-reviewed journal articles, research reports (including commissioned reports), working papers and policy briefs as well as popular articles. In addition the CREST staff have also presented papers at national and international conferences that we have included (as PDF’s) on this page. Those publications that are specifically linked to the establishment of the DST-NRF Centre of Excellence in Scientometrics and STI Policy in 2014 and to the establishment of the SARChi Chair in Science Communication in 2015 are listed separately on these two websites (SciSTIP and SciCOM).
