Panorama de las fuentes audiovisuales internacionales en televisión: contenido, gestión y derechos

por

Las cadenas generalistas españolas (nacionales y autonómicas) cuentan con diferentes fuentes audiovisuales para informar de los temas internacionales, como agencias, consorcios de noticias y corresponsalías. En este artículo, a partir de los datos facilitados por diferentes cadenas, se aborda la cobertura, el uso y la gestión de dichas fuentes, así como sus derechos de uso y archivado, y se analiza la historia y las herramientas en línea de las agencias más empleadas. Finalmente se describe la labor diaria del departamento de Eurovision de TVE, al que hace unos meses se han incorporado documentalistas que, además de tratar documentalmente el material audiovisual, realizan labores de edición y producción.

Análisis de los artículos publicados sobre documentación televisiva en España (1984–2014)

por
Base de dades amb les cerques fetes en ISOC

Objectiu: estudiar treballs publicats a Espanya sobre documentació televisiva amb la finalitat de traçar un panorama general i una evolució temàtica en aquest camp professional.

Metodologia: s’han fet cerques en sis bases de dades especialitzades amb les quals s’ha pogut establir una evolució de la producció científica dedicada a la documentació televisiva, tant en el nombre de treballs publicats com en els temes tractats. També s’han valorat les publicacions que editen un nombre més gran d’articles dedicats a la documentació televisiva i els autors que hi participen.

Resultats: no es pot establir una relació entre la producció de documents científics sobre documentació televisiva i esdeveniments; s’ha evidenciat poc tractament de temes que tenen importància professional, com les normes tècniques. Així mateix, s’ha destacat que la majoria de les publicacions tenen autor únic i que més d’un 50 % dels autors són homes.

Figura 1. Áreas implicadas en la docencia

Objective: This paper analyses the presence of interdisciplinarity in bachelor’s degrees in information and documentation.

Methodology: The current state of curricula design and regulation in Spanish bachelor’s degree courses in information and documentation was reviewed and an analysis was then made of the subjects taught in this degree during the academic year 2013-2014, using the variables department responsible for teaching and programme content. The subject programmes were analysed using related words.

Results: More than 40 different areas of knowledge with department-associated subjects were identified across the curricula. The paper observed the presence of areas of knowledge recommended by the bodies that participated in the Libro Blanco en Información y Documentación (White paper on Information and Documentation, National Agency for Quality Assessment and Accreditation of Spain, ANECA), and areas of knowledge included in the Spanish information and documentation degrees the licenciatura degree (a 4- to 6-year course entitling the holder to begin doctoral studies) and the diplomatura degree (a short-cycle course in the humanities or health care). Interdisciplinarity was most present in the knowledge areas of historiography, information technology, languages, law, and statistics.

Introduction: Production is an essential part of scientific activity and its visibility is an indicator for the evaluation of science. Scientific journals have been transformed and the open access movement has driven changes in our scholarly communication model.

Objective: This paper analyses the scientific journals used by researchers in information science in Brazil and the visibility of these journals in the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases by comparing the scientific production published in open access and restricted-access journals.

Methodology: Quantitative, exploratory and documentary analysis was made using the scientific production of researchers in information science in Brazil that receive productivity grants from the Brazilian National Research and Development Council (CNPq).

Results: It was found that researchers published primarily in open access national journals, and that the visibility of these journals in international databases did not significantly differ to the visibility of restricted-access publications. — Introdução: A produção é parte essencial da atividade científica e a sua visibilidade é indicador para a avaliação da ciência. Os periódicos científicos têm se transformado e o movimento de acesso aberto tem impulsionado mudanças no modelo de comunicação científica.

Objetivo: A presente pesquisa objetivou analisar os periódicos utilizados para publicação pelos pesquisadores de Ciência da Informação no Brasil e sua visibilidade nas bases de dados WoS e Scopus, comparando as publicações com acesso aberto e acesso restrito.

Metodologia: Pesquisa quantitativa, exploratória e documental que teve como corpus de análise a produção científica em periódicos dos pesquisadores bolsistas de produtividade em pesquisa do CNPQ da área de Ciência da Informação no Brasil.

Resultados: Conclui-se que os pesquisadores publicam prioritariamente em periódicos nacionais de acesso aberto e que a visibilidade destas publicações não apresenta diferenças significativas no que tange à visibilidade em bases de dados internacionais comparadas com as publicações de acesso restrito.

La inserción profesional de los graduados en Información y Documentación: el caso de la Universidad de Salamanca

por
Any de graduació

Objective: This paper analyses the employability of graduates in the bachelor’s degree in Information and Documentation of the University of Salamanca.

Methodology: A questionnaire consisting of closed-ended questions (suggested response, evaluation) and one open-ended question was administered in web format to the graduate students who had completed the degree in the period 2009-2012.

Results: Information and documentation graduates from the university in question were most commonly women whose motivation to become professionals was vocational. The respondents’ evaluation of the knowledge acquired during their degree was positive. The professional tasks they engaged in most were technically complex tasks requiring a level of expertise, and the majority of the respondents were employed. In what appears to be a new trend, in certain cases respondents had found employment in the private sector. An increase was also observed in the use of the Internet to obtain a professional position and in respondents’ professional interest in acquiring project planning and management skills in information and documentation.

The App Date (2013). http://bit.ly/16TuPuj

Current trends in mobile media consumption have changed the way mobile devices are used and mobile applications or ‘apps’ are a prime example. Apps offer new opportunities for developing mobile media with smart phones and tablets and allow users to consume that media anywhere at any time. In order to offer competitive services, information professionals need to keep abreast of the developments in smart technology, data connection and the connectivity people have through mobile devices. This paper examines the main technological developments in wireless communication and considers data about its growth and relevance to the information market, establishing how to negotiate a technology project based on computer applications for mobile devices and how to successfully develop a mobile application focused on information services.

Mercado de trabajo en información y documentación y crisis económica en España: una aproximación a partir de las ofertas publicadas en IweTel entre 2008 y 2013

por
Nombre d'ofertes per any

Objective: This paper analyses the number, nature and conditions of job offers in the job listings published by the internet forum IweTel during the period January 2008-December 2013.

Methodology: The characteristics of job offers were analysed using statistical analysis. In many cases, the data had to be normalized before it could be used.

Results: Employment in information and documentation clearly fell during the six-year period studied, from 2008 when a total of 190 job offers were listed, to 2013 when that figure had dropped to 35. The precarity of the labour market was also noted, especially in the length of employment time offered. The organization that most frequently used the forum was typically a document service company with headquarters in Madrid, and the jobs most frequently advertised were for professionals in cataloguing. The IweTel forum was considered a valuable source of data because it has the largest mailing list for information professionals in Spain; its disadvantage was that IweTel is most frequently used by private ventures who are familiar with the sector, while other types of company advertise there less frequently or not at all.

Análisis de los estudios bibliométricos en Cataluña

Evolución del número de estudios bibliométricos en Cataluña, respecto a los de la base de datos ISOC

Objective: This paper describes the production of bibliometric studies in Catalonia in quantitative terms. It examines publications that use bibliometric tools to determine features of scientific production but excludes journals that present or discuss bibliometric methods and techniques.

Methodology: Bibliometric tools were used to analyse the registers of a relational database obtained from various sources, including the bibliographic databases of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA), Library, Information Science & Technology Abstracts (LISTA), and the index Library Literature and Information Science. Searches were also performed using PubMed, Dialnet, and Google Scholar, and references were obtained by citation chaining.

Results: A total of 297 documents were identified, of which 76.8 % were journal articles. These examined a substantial number of knowledge areas, of which biomedicine was especially prominent. The subject matter of the documents ranged across the spectrum of the knowledge areas analysed. In general, the studies that predominated addressed Spain, although there were variations that also responded to this range of areas. The predominant language was Spanish, most papers were co-authored by two or more authors and the most common author arrangement was a collaboration between departmental members.
