Abstract

Se estudia la evolución del uso de revistas cientí­ficas electrónicas en el perí­odo 2007-2018 realizado por las comunidades académicas de las universidades públicas de Castilla y León adscritas al consorcio Bucle. Se analizan las descargas de artí­culos distribuidos por cuatro proveedores de amplio espectro: Emerald, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink y Wiley. Inesperadamente, dadas las nuevas ví­as de acceso a los contenidos, este análisis muestra que en las universidades públicas de Castilla y León se ha incrementado el número de descargas. Sin embargo se ha constatado que pese al crecimiento, unas pocas revistas aglutinan la mayor parte de las descargas y que un elevado número de tí­tulos no se utiliza. Se verifica que las universidades con más plantilla y mayor diversidad de áreas de conocimiento utilizan un abanico de tí­tulos más amplio y obtienen así­ un mayor rendimiento de las contrataciones. Todo lo anterior nos lleva a cuestionar el sistema de contratación de paquetes cerrados y multidisciplinares de centenares de revistas y otros recursos o big deals. En un momento de cambio impulsado por el Plan S, consideramos más necesario que nunca conocer la situación de partida en la provisión de contenidos de publicaciones cientí­ficas seriadas que ayude a establecer de manera fundamentada las estrategias adecuadas y más eficientes de acceso a la información cientí­fica.
