Resumen

Se analiza la creación o cambios de tí­tulo de las revistas cientí­ficas del área de Información y Documentación (ID) en el periodo de 2013-2018. A partir de un total de 62 revistas identificadas a través de ISSN Portal y Ulrichsweb se describen: aspectos caracterí­sticos como paí­ses, idiomas, tipos de editor y modelo de acceso; la difusión en bases de datos bibliográficas, de citas o directorios de revistas; la pervivencia y el volumen de producción de artí­culos; número de citas anual de los artí­culos en Google Scholar; alcance temático que declaran los editores; y finalmente, la justificación que los editores exponen en el cambio de tí­tulo o en la creación de una nueva revista. Como conclusiones principales respecto a los tí­tulos de nueva creación, destaca el protagonismo de los editores académicos de sistemas universitarios nacionales en expansión y de los tí­tulos en acceso abierto. En general las nuevas publicaciones generan pocos artí­culos por año, tienen poca presencia en bases de datos y reciben pocas citas. Los cambios de tí­tulos se detectan sólo en editoriales comerciales. En ambos casos predominan las revistas de alcance temático general y un número importante de revistas no justifica su creación o el cambio de tí­tulo.
