Abstract
Purpose – This paper aims to determine to what extent the scientific production and research activities of a group of National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) research institutes in the sciences, social sciences and humanities are visible on the internet with a view to identifying areas where web presence is not optimal so improvements can be made.Design/methodology/approach – The authors do this by analysing the relevant information on their web sites and by comparing institutional listings of scientific production between 2005 and 2006, with papers reported in the international, multidisciplinary online services of the Web of Science and Scopus, as well as in Clase and Periodica which cover production in Latin American journals.Findings – Results indicate general poor visibility of research activities and production in the institutional web sites with only limited access to full text articles. Web sites of the institutes in the sciences score better than those in the humanities and social science...
目的-本文旨在确定一组墨西哥国立自治大学(UNAM)在科学,社会科学和人文科学方面的研究机构的科学生产和研究活动在多大程度上在互联网上可见,以确定网络存在不理想的领域,从而可以进行改进。设计/方法/方法——这组作者通过分析他们的网站上的相关信息,并通过比较2005年至2006年科学产出的机构列表,与web of Science和Scopus的国际多学科在线服务以及Clase和Periodica上报道的拉丁美洲期刊产出的论文进行比较。研究结果-结果表明,在机构网站上,研究活动和成果的可见性普遍较差,只有有限的全文文章。科学研究所的网站得分高于人文和社会科学研究所的网站。
