Abstract
This study explored the publication pattern of Canadian computer scientists and compared the impact of conference papers and journal articles published by these researchers. It was found that conference proceedings are the preferred venue for scholarly communication, but the impact of conference papers is not comparable to that of journal articles. The potential reasons for the lower impact of conference papers are discussed, and possible approaches to improve the current scholarly communication system in computer science are proposed.Cette recherche explore les pratiques de publication des scientifiques canadiens en informatique et compare l’impact des présentations à des colloques et des articles de revues savantes publiées par ces chercheurs. Nous avons constaté que les actes de colloque sont le lieu privilégié pour la communication scientifique, mais que l’impact des présentations à des colloques n’est pas comparable à celui des articles de revues. Nous discutons des raisons possibles de l’impact plus faible des présentations à des colloques, et nous proposons des approches possibles pour améliorer le système actuel de communication savante en informatique.

期刊介绍:
The Canadian Journal of Information and Library Science is recognized internationally for its authoritative bilingual contributions to the field of information science. Established in 1976, the journal is dedicated to the publication of research findings, both in full-length and in brief format; reviews of books; software and technology; and letters to the editor. The editorial policy of the journal is to continue the advancement of information and library science in both English and French Canada by serving as a forum for discussion of theory and research. The journal is concerned with research findings, understanding the issues in the field, and understanding the history, economics, technology, and human behaviour of information library systems and services.
