Resumen

Se indaga en la utilidad de las revistas electrónicas de los big deals contratados por las universidades públicas de la Comunidad Autónoma de Castilla y León (Universidad de Burgos, Universidad de León, Universidad de Salamanca y Universidad de Valladolid) a partir del análisis de las descargas y citas realizadas por sus investigadores. El análisis se circunscribe a la producción científica presente en Scopus en la categoría Library & Information Science (LIS) durante el periodo 2011-2017 y a las estadísticas de descargas que Emerald, IEEExplore, ScienceDirect, Springer y Wiley han proporcionado a las cuatro universidades públicas. Los resultados muestran que las revistas de LIS se adscriben además a otras categorías y, por tanto, recogen una investigación pluridisciplinar. Los investigadores de Documentación no colaboran, sin embargo, de manera extensiva con otras disciplinas. Se confirma que los proveedores analizados distribuyen títulos que interesan a las comunidades académicas investigadas, aunque las preferencias no son homogéneas. Se constata, finalmente, la correlación entre descargas y citas lo que demuestra que ambas métricas sirven para identificar las revistas prioritarias para los académicos.
