    Journal citation identity and journal citation image: a portrait of the Journal of Documentation
    Emerald ; 2006
    In:  Journal of Documentation Vol. 62, No. 1 ( 2006-01-01), p. 30-57
    Details
    In: Journal of Documentation, Emerald, Vol. 62, No. 1 ( 2006-01-01), p. 30-57
    Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to propose a multiple set of journal evaluation indicators using methods and theories from author analysis. Among those are the journal citation identity and the journal citation image. Design/methodology/approach The Journal of Documentation is celebrating its 60th anniversary, and for that reason it is portrayed in a bibliometric study using the two indicators, based, e.g. on analyses of references in journal articles and journal co‐citation analyses. Findings The Journal of Documentation , which is portrayed in this study is characterized by high impact and high visibility. It publishes a relatively low number of documents with scientific content compared to other journals in the same field. It reaches far into the scientific community and belongs to a field that is more and more visible. The journal is relatively closely bounded to Western Europe, which is an increasing tendency. Research limitations/implications The research is based on analyses of just three LIS journals. Practical implications Journal citation identity and the journal citation image indicators contribute in giving a more detailed multifaceted picture of a single journal. Originality/value The multiple set of indicators give rise to a journal evaluation of a more qualitative nature.

    In: Journal of Documentation, Emerald, Vol. 72, No. 3 ( 2016-5-9), p. 454-489
    Abstract: – The purpose of this paper is to provide a close, detailed analysis of the frequency, nature, and depth of visible use of two of Foucault’s classic early works, The Archaeology of Knowledge and The Order of Things , by library, and information science/studies (LIS) scholars. Design/methodology/approach – The study involved conducting extensive full-text searches in a large number of electronically available LIS journal databases to find citations of Foucault’s works, then examining each citing article and each individual citation to evaluate the nature and depth of each use. Findings – Contrary to initial expectations, the works in question are relatively little used by LIS scholars in journal articles, and where they are used, such use is often only vague, brief, or in passing. In short, works traditionally seen as central and foundational to discourse analysis appear relatively little in discussions of discourse. Research limitations/implications – The study was limited to a certain batch of LIS journal articles that are electronically available in full text at UCLA, where the study was conducted. The results potentially could change by focussing on a fuller or different collection of journals or on non-journal literature. More sophisticated bibliometric techniques could reveal different relative performance among journals. Other research approaches, such as discourse analysis, social network analysis, or scholar interviews, might reveal patterns of use and influence that are not visible in the journal literature. Originality/value – This study’s intensive, in-depth study of quality as well as quantity of citations challenges some existing assumptions regarding citation analysis and the sociology of citation practices, plus illuminating Foucault scholarship.

    Foucault's toolbox: use of Foucault's writings in LIS journal literature, 1990–2016

    In: Journal of Documentation, Emerald, Vol. 76, No. 3 ( 2020-02-13), p. 689-707
    Abstract: To provide a close, detailed analysis of the frequency, nature, and depth of visible use of Michel Foucault's works by library and information science/studies (LIS) scholars. Design/methodology/approach The study conducted extensive full-text searches in a large number of electronically available LIS journal databases to find citations of Foucault's works, then examined each cited article to evaluate the nature and depth of use. Findings Most uses of Foucault are brief or in passing. In-depth explorations of Foucault's works are comparatively rare and relatively little-used by other LIS scholars. Yet the relatively brief uses of Foucault encompass a wide array of different topics spread across a wide spectrum of LIS journal literature. Research limitations/implications The study was limited to articles from particular relatively prominent LIS journals. Results might vary if different journals or non-journal literature were studied. More sophisticated bibliometric techniques might reveal different relative performance among journals and might better test, confirm, or reject various patterns and relationships found here. Other research approaches, such as discourse analysis, social network analysis, or scholar interviews, might reveal patterns of use and influence not visible in this literature sample. Originality/value This intensive study of both quality and quantity of citations may challenge some existing assumptions regarding citation analysis, plus illuminating Foucault scholarship. It also indicates possible problems for future application of artificial intelligence (AI) approaches to similar depth-of-use studies.

    THE AGING OF SCIENTIFIC LITERATURE: A CITATION ANALYSIS
    Emerald ; 1979
    In:  Journal of Documentation Vol. 35, No. 3 ( 1979-3-1), p. 179-196
    Details
    In: Journal of Documentation, Emerald, Vol. 35, No. 3 ( 1979-3-1), p. 179-196
    Abstract: Scientific writings age; individual documents, issues or volumes of scientific journals are, eventually, less valued and less used with the passage of time. Long periods of time, say more than several decades, render portions of the literature obsolete, and ‘aging’ is evident. However, controversy has developed recently about quantitative models, particularly Brookes, which proposes a systematic exponential aging process for the corpus of library periodical holdings. In disagreement with these models, Sandison presents use patterns showing no aging; and Line points to methodological difficulties in demonstrating aging. Both the models, and the questions raised regarding their validity are of considerable interest and importance to our understanding of the nature of scientific information and the management of collections. We show, here, that citation data conform well to the Brookes model, but the chief findings regard the nature of the aging process and its apparent range within scientific literatures. A scientific journal which is used as an archive ages slowly; one which supports a research front ages quickly. Aging depends not merely on the material itself, but its user, and a single journal may be aged very differently by different user communities. Lastly, aging rates vary among journals, and it is relatively easy to identify journals which age at about the rate at which the literature grows and journals which appear to exhaust most of their utility within a few years.

    Abstract: The frequency and consistency of selection by Physics Abstracts of astronomical articles from three major journals, Nature, Astrophysical Journal , and Icarus , have been investigated. This has involved an examination of the probability of selection of an article as a function of its subject matter. As a result, it is possible to specify which fields of astronomy are best covered by Physics Abstracts . The time‐lag between the appearance of these articles and the subsequent appearance of their abstracts has also been examined.

    Research journal articles as document genres: exploring their role in knowledge organization
    Emerald ; 2008
    In:  Journal of Documentation Vol. 64, No. 1 ( 2008-01-18), p. 143-167
    Details
    In: Journal of Documentation, Emerald, Vol. 64, No. 1 ( 2008-01-18), p. 143-167
    Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to outline how article genres, or article types, are classified and described in the disciplines of biology, education, and software engineering. By using the expression article genres, emphasis is placed on the social role of journal articles that, as such, accomplish specific communicative functions and are intended for a certain context and audience. Design/methodology/approach Drawing on this idea, the instructions to authors of the research journals cited in the Journal Citation Reports for each of the three disciplines are analysed. Findings The information provided by the instructions to authors of major publications in the fields studied allows one to describe the following article genres: major articles, theoretical articles, review articles, short articles, practice‐oriented articles, case studies, comment and opinion, and reviews. Research limitations/implications Results show that article genres reflect the nature of research in each field to the extent that using them to describe items along with topic may improve management and retrieval of scientific documents. In addition, article genres perform specific communicative functions within disciplinary communities, which accounts for both emerging types of articles and variations in traditional types. Originality/value The paper summarizes the information on article genres available in the instructions to authors of scientific journals in the disciplines of biology, education and software engineering. It attempts to show how results can mirror the nature of research in each field as well as current debates within each discipline on the state and quality of research. Also it shows how article genres convey specific communication needs within disciplinary communities, which proves that genres are social and evolving objects.

    Abstract: The first quarterly issue of The Journal of Documentation was published in June 1945. In an introductory note the first editor, Theodore Besterman, defined a document as ‘anything in which knowledge is recorded’ and documentation as ‘any process which serves to make a document available to the seeker after knowledge’. His experience indicated that librarianship and bibliography, … classification and filing [and] photographic and mechanical methods of reproduction would be some of the channels of documentation which would guide knowledge to the enquirer. His foresight warned him that there would be many other channels. His ambition was that the new journal's attention would not be limited by national boundaries. His wisdom, acknowledging the unpropitious nature of the post‐war times, advised a quiet beginning for such a universal undertaking.

    CATALOGUING RULES AND PRACTICE: CHANGES AT UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, LONDON, IN ANTICIPATION OF A REVISED CODE
    Emerald ; 1956

    In: Journal of Documentation, Emerald, Vol. 12, No. 2 ( 1956-2-1), p. 88-93
    Abstract: The changes in cataloguing rules and practice that were put into operation in the Library of University College, London, in the summer of 1955 cannot in the nature of things compare in scope or elaboration with the new scheme of classification, the main features of which were described by Mr. Garside in Vol. 10, No. 4 of this journal. Nevertheless they represent the beginnings of a desirable complement on the cataloguing side to the massive improvements in the arrangement of books inaugurated by the adoption of the new scheme. They are designed to facilitate the finding of books in the catalogue as the classification does on the shelves. Incidentally, they will considerably reduce the need for adding the fourth, alphabetical element of the classmark to the cards. Like the classification, they represent an economy in administration in the long, if not always immediately in the short run.
