期刊质量评价指标研究综述

期刊作为一种重要的文献类型,其发展经历了纸本期刊、期刊数据库、电子期刊等多个阶段,对应的质量评价方法与评价指标研究成果也得到了广泛认可。随着开放获取运动的兴起,开放获取期刊作为一个免费的、特殊的电子期刊逐渐得到各学科科研人员的接纳并使用,对开放获取期刊的质量评价开始引起计量学研究人员的关注。本文按期刊的发展阶段对期刊的评价指标研究做理论综述,希望能够为开放获取期刊质量评价指标体系的构建提供相关理论参考与借鉴。     

科技评价指标与评价方法辨识度的测度研究

提出科技评价指标与评价方法辨识度的概念,给出一种通用的测量评价辨识度的方法。其原理是首先将评价数据排序并将数据和序号进行标准化处理,然后计算评价数据各点连线的长度,并以汤森路透《期刊引用报告》中的光学期刊为例进行实证研究。评价辨识度可以广泛应用于评价指标选取、评价方法选取、评价结果运用等诸多方面。     

从知识积累角度评价SCI期刊学术质量

基于期刊学术质量的学术期刊评价一直以来都是文献计量学领域的热点问题,然而学术界至今对期刊学术质量内涵尚未达成共识且鲜有相关学术研究.本文在回顾前人研究结果的基础上,借助REF质量框架用于理论分析期刊质量内涵的复杂性和多维度性,提出期刊的质量评价应当根据不同角度,采用不同的方法或指标,进而为建立可靠的期刊总体质量评价体系作铺垫.在此观点下,本文选取管理运筹学领域的64种国际期刊作为研究样本,展示了从知识积累角度评价期刊学术质量的指标及结果,并与常用的期刊影响因子排名结果进行相关分析.本研究可看作是建立或完善期刊质量全面评价体系的基础工作之一.     

从"小众"到"大众":谈期刊评价机制的变革

期刊评价是通过一系列的评价指标对期刊进行综合性评估的,这些指标是否科学,是否能客观、真实地反映出期刊质量,关系到期刊能否朝着健康的方向发展.因此,建立科学、公正的期刊评价制度对期刊的发展具有十分重要的意义.如果期刊评价机制科学、公正,那么,真正优秀的期刊就能得到良好的评价,从而朝着良性的方向发展;反之,如果期刊评价机制不科学、客观,仅凭少数人操纵,主观随意性大,或者貌似科学,其实有失公平,那么,其结果可能是"罚优奖劣",给期刊发展带来不利影响.     

试论图书馆期刊工作质量评价体系的建立

首先指出了影响现代图书馆期刊工作发展的因素。为提高期刊工作的整体水平,使其适应现代化图书馆的管理模式,促进图书馆期刊各工作环节科学化、规范化,试图将全面质量管理的思想和理论引入图书馆期刊工作的全部流程,借鉴企业管理的标准、规范,参照图书馆界的相关标准,建立具体的、实用的质量评价指标。指标内容主要包括资源评价、服务评价和管理评价,并针对指标内容作了较为详细的说明,进而形成全面衡量期刊工作水平的全能指标。     

科技期刊国际影响力评价指标研究

分析当前我国学术交流国际化与中国期刊走出去的差距及成因,提出一个评价我国学术期刊国际影响力的指标——期刊“国际影响力指数CI”.通过分析主要的定量评价指标——影响因子、总被引频次及其他指标的意义和作用,探讨基于他引总被引频次、他引影响因子“线性叠加”的综合排序方法与“双指标归一化向量平权统计模型”的优劣,提出按后一种算法得到的期刊CI是一种更科学、全面反映学术期刊影响力的综合指标.依据《中国学术期刊国际引证报告(2014年版)》的数据,讨论我国学术期刊与WOS收录期刊的相对水平与差距.     

科技类核心期刊评价的缺憾分析

介绍"核心期刊"与"统计源期刊"评价方法的特点,从期刊评价指标体系和期刊分类2个方面分析科技类核心期刊评价中存在的不足;构建了科技类期刊计量评价模型,提出了"二次分类"和引入新的评价指标的建议.     

科技期刊质量评估的二次相对评价方法

为解决目前科技期刊质量评估指标体系和评价方法不能充分反映出各期刊社和编辑工作者的有效主观努力程度的问题，提出一种评估科技期刊的二次相对评价方法。该方法将期刊以往状态的评价结果作为各期刊社基础条件的一种度量，再运用数据包络分析方法测算出它们的二次相对评价值。这样的评价结果能够定量测算出各期刊社和编辑工作者在期刊编辑活动中的有效主观努力程度。     

学术质量评价指标权重的确定与商榷

为了求证通常用来定量分析评价期刊质量的7项指标的作用,采集了历年的7项大量数据,用综合评价法分别计算出7项指标的权重.结果发现,7项指标中有3项指标的权重为98%,无论从哪方面统计计算都完全可以用3项指标代表7项指标.认为简化定量分析评价期刊质量的过程,可只用3项指标.     

JCR五年期影响因子探析

使用期刊引证报告(JCR)6015种期刊数据,以统计学方法探索性地分析5年期影响因子IF5的特点.结果显示,IF5作为具有代表性的平均性期刊评价指标,能更好地反映多数期刊被引高峰,总体符合布拉德福分布.IF5与2年期影响因子IF存在排序相关,也有显著统计学差异,两者测评结果在较好和较差期刊上相对一致,但在多数水平居中的期刊上存在区别.最后,给出Ifa指数测度两种影响因子的差别和Ifb指数综合两种影响因子的评价信息.     

British Writings on Romania: From Travel Accounts to Studies

This article surveys a sample of sources of the information about Romania available to British readers in nineteenth century British newspapers and periodicals. It traces first contacts between the Romanian lands and Britain after the union of the principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia in 1859, then after their independence from the Ottoman Empire. The article highlights an increased Romanian interest in British periodicals, which reported and reviewed Romanian literature and scholarship. The article concludes that nineteenth century British newspapers and periodicals offer a great variety and wealth of new material previously unavailable or unknown to researchers. It also states that only a portion of a large quantity of this material has been indexed and is therefore available via the bibliographic sources mentioned in the article. The author argues for the need of a new and updated British-Romanian bibliography, which can draw on new online resources offering access to thousands of new newspapers and periodical records.     

Slavic Approval Plans: What Works and What Doesn't

ABSTRACT

The paper looks at library approval plans for material published in Slavic, East European, and Eurasian countries from the selector's point of view. Reasons why a selector would or would not want one are examined. Success with approval plans requires monitoring receipts, as well as good and ongoing communication among the selector, the acquistions department, and the vendor. A preliminary list of vendors offering approval plans for the countries of the region appears in the appendix.

Politicking for the Public Library

ABSTRACT

In today's current political environment raising support for millage renewals, bond campaigns or even millage continuations for public libraries is affected by national politics, and a tendency towards tax aversion on principle across the country. The lessons we can learn from the governing boards of small and rural public libraries are worth raising up to a greater national consciousness. Board governance, community consciousness, and facilities management are clear and logical tools that elected boards of public libraries can use to politick for support of libraries.     

Architectures of Knowledge and Literary Tradition: A History of the Almanac in Croatia

ABSTRACT

The history of the almanac in Croatia is reconstructed through primary research in bibliographic and archival sources. The almanac is a vehicle for knowledge communication in informal contexts, engaging both oral tradition and literary forms traceable to medieval literacy and ways of structuring knowledge. The history of the almanac in Croatia reflects the changing context of the book trade, literacy, and the evolution of language. Four main stages are identified: (1) the beginning of the annual almanac in the seventeenth century; astrological almanacs reflecting the sensibility of the Baroque period; (2) the Enlightenment's stimulation of almanac publishing in the spirit of contemporary secular reforms in agriculture and education; (3) nineteenth-and twentieth-century almanac trade, showing complex and overlapping networks for the production, distribution and appropriation of printed almanacs;(4) roughly the end of World War II, when the almanac slowly moved out of the role of a popular mass medium and into specialized niches represented by regional, diaspora, and religious almanacs.

This paper will explore these questions and look at some of the possible reasons behind Amazon’s business practices and the possible consequences to publishers.     

Germany's New Culture of Welcome—Our Libraries are an Essential Part of it

ABSTRACT

German authorities are expecting more than 1 million refugees by the end of 2015. These people come to Germany to seek protection and assistance and to build a new life, therefore it is important to welcome them and to assist them in their integration as soon as possible. This situation creates a versatile and perfectly fitting opportunity for cultural and educational programs, including libraries, which can play a vital role in this integration process. The key to integration is the knowledge of the German language, and the most important challenge now is to teach the necessary language skills to as many asylum-seekers as possible.     

Syndicating Rich Bibliographic Metadata Using MODS and RSS

Abstract

Many libraries use RSS to syndicate information about their collections to users. A survey of 65 academic libraries revealed their most common use for RSS is to disseminate information about library holdings, such as lists of new acquisitions. Even though typical RSS feeds are ill suited to the task of carrying rich bibliographic metadata, great potential exists for developing applications that can exploit metadata exposed to Web services via RSS. Using the MODS metadata format, entire catalog records can be seamlessly embedded in RSS 2.0 feeds. Existing tools, such as Library of Congress Java toolkits and XSLT stylesheets, can facilitate this process, while a new XSLT stylesheet may be used to create the RSS feeds complete with MODS records. As an example of the added functionality these MODS/RSS feeds can offer, records from a MODS-enriched RSS feed can be ingested into a non-RSS application such as Zotero. As more emerging library technologies use Web services architectures to handle data objects, the ability to syndicate catalog records will become more critical to providing innovative library Web services.     

Selling Women on PDAs from “Simply Palm” to “Audrey”: How Moore's Law Met Parkinson's Law in the Kitchen

This essay investigates key moments in the history of personal digital assistant (PDA) marketing to women. Analyzing promotional texts for three PDAs that received considerable press coverage from 1999 to 2001, this essay explores the cultural significance of the convergence of anxieties about women's place in the gendered division of labor with the computer industry's changing marketing imperatives. Drawing on an array of promotional texts, including news articles, press releases, promotional Web sites, and ads appearing in newspapers and magazines, this paper tells the story of how the computer industry aimed to sell smaller, faster computing devices to women while promising to mediate and thus reproduce women's overwork as paid and familial laborers. After experimenting with the PDA as a sexy fashionable gadget for working women, marketers approached women as mothers with “Audrey,” an Internet appliance designed for the kitchen.
