Are link-based and citation-based journal metrics correlated? An Open Access megapublisher case study
The current value of link counts as supplementary measures of the formal quality and impact of journals is analyzed, considering an open access megapublisher (MDPI) as a case study. We analyzed 352 journals through 21 citation-based and link-based journal-level indicators, using Scopus (523,935 publications) and Majestic (567,900 links) as data sources. Given the statistically significant strong positive Spearman correlations achieved, it is conc…
Respuesta a Delgado-López-Cózar et al: Factor de impacto: muchas declaraciones y pocos resultados. Letter
This umpteenth statement, although doubtlessly brilliant, arrives late and badly, since it not only insists on a strategy that has not worked but also avoids building the consensus that is necessary in the Spanish-speaking bibliometric community, a community that may not be mustered in this way to the extent that it remains far from a unanimous position. There will be conflicting interests, academic debate, and various publications, but action mu…
Altmetrics of the Open Access Institutional Repositories: A webometrics approach
Calidad formal, impacto y visibilidad de las revistas electrónicas universitarias españolas
An analysis evaluating electronic journals published by Spanish universities was performed, taking into account both formal aspects and cybermetric indicators. The aim of this study was to analyse the impact and visibility of these web-based publications. The number of publications, their formal and content-related characteristics, and their use of features and tools provided by the electronic medium were all considered. The results fall below ex…
Bibliometric and benchmark analysis of gold Open Access in Spain: Big output and little impact
This bibliometric study analyzes the research output produced by Spain during the 2005-2014 time period in Open Access (OA) journals indexed in Web of Science. The aim of the paper is to determine if papers published in Open Access journals contribute to the improvement of citation impact and collaboration indicators in Spanish research. The results are shown by scientific areas and compared with 17 European countries. Spain is the second highest…
Informetrics for librarians: Describing their important role in the evaluation process
Librarians are playing a secondary role in the process of evaluating research activities, usually as auxiliary providers of raw data extracted from pre-selected sources. Given the subjective nature of the decision committees, there is a strong need for unbiased and objective procedures guaranteed by independent professionals. A neutral, comprehensive, modern, quantitative approach guided by academic librarians is proposed, including closeness to …
Políticas de información y publicación científica
The lack of an integrated information policy for scientific activity evaluation has led to a wide range of information products and services that are used for such purposes, although they were not originally designed for that. While it is true that these tools have limitations and deficiencies, and in several cases are technologically and methodologically obsolete, possibly the biggest problem is sustainability in the present times of economic cr…
Tecnologías, investigación y futuro de la profesión
The success of information professionals in the coming years will depend on their commitment to research and development in the areas of identification, access, retrieval, storage, description and assessment of the vast amount of resources available. This research effort should be coordinated with computer scientists, not to seek their cooperation in specific technical tasks and developments, but to make significant progress in frontier areas of …
Minería del uso de webs
The analysis of web usage information is an important cybermetric tool for describing the visits and visitors to a website, and their navigation behaviour, which can help in designing the structure and contents of the webpages. The paper describes the main concepts (log file, session, user) and introduces both manual and automated techniques to study the log files. Finally, the counters and trackers are described, paying special attention to the …
Análisis estructural de una red social en línea: La red española de Flickr
This paper intends, from a structural point of view, to analyse the network of Flickr’s members who live or were born in Spain. The aim of the study is to know how the network evolves, what is its shape, what groups are detected and what uses are carried out within the network. We identified 663 Flickr members through a double snowball process and harvested their joining date, photos and contacts with a crawler. The results show that the users wh…
La web académica española en el contexto del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior: Estudio exploratorio
Spain’s academic web space is diagrammed, together with its relationship with the European Higher Education Area (EHEA), with the goal of determining the topology, the outstanding universities, and our standing with respect to other European web spaces. Several co-link maps and network graphs visually represent these relationships among universities and web spaces. The results show that the Spanish network is rather isolated from other European u…

Análisis de co-enlaces: Una aproximación teórica
This work provides a theoretical and practical walk-through of Co-link Analysis, one of the classic techniques for information visualisation that serves as a tool for constructing Maps of Science in Webometrics. An analysis is offered of the steps to be followed, the most suitable data resources, the different kinds of matrices, and how these have to be processed. The results permit distinguishing between the different steps taken and the differe…
Contenidos del buscador Google. Distribución por países, dominios e idiomas
Quantitative analysis of the contents of Google’s database in order to ascertain the impact of the new BigDaddy infrastructure. The results show a substantial increase in the volume of pages indexed, approaching 40.000.000.000, of which 40% are in the .com domain. The .es domain represents less than half of the pages from Spain, due to the large number of pages registered under international domains. In all, our country’s presence in Google conte…
