Rivas Villena, Jesús Alberto Uribe-Tirado, Alejandro López-Mesa, Evony Katherine Limaymanta, Cesar H. 2021-11-23 This article analyzes the scientific production on ALFIN (2001-2020) in the areas of Library and Information Science. All BIC journals were identified from Latindex. Then it was verified whether these journals were contained in the following databases: Web of Science (Core Collection and Scielo Citation Index), Scopus, Lens and Dimensions. The Lens database was chosen for retrieving records on ALFIN and performing the bibliometric analysis, as it has the highest coverage of BIC journals in Latindex. The trend and growth of scientific production were evaluated according to authors and year of publication; the productivity of authors was analyzed using Lotka’s Law and the dispersion of the literature according to Bradford’s Law. The degree, index, and coefficient of collaboration were determined and collaboration networks were identified according to authors. The results show that scientific production on ALFIN in Latin America, reached a peak between 2017 and 2018, presenting a decrease from 2019 onwards. It was also observed that the production, collaboration among authors, and the quantity of journals is predominantly Brazilian. Este artículo analiza la producción científica sobre ALFIN (2001-2020) en las áreas de Bibliotecología y Ciencias de la Información. A partir de Latindex, se identificaron todas las revistas de ByCI. Luego se verificó, si dichas revistas, estaban contenidas en las siguientes bases de datos: Web of Science (Core Collection y Scielo Citation Index), Scopus, Lens y Dimensions. Para la recuperación de registros sobre ALFIN y realizar el análisis bibliométrico, se eligió la base de datos Lens, por tener la mayor cobertura de revistas de ByCI en Latindex. Se evaluaron la tendencia y el crecimiento de la producción científica según autores y año de publicación; se analizó la productividad de los autores mediante la Ley de Lotka y la dispersión de la literatura según la Ley de Bradford. Se determinó el grado, índice y coeficiente de colaboración y se identificaron las redes de colaboración según autores. Los resultados muestran que la producción científica sobre ALFIN en Latinoamérica, alcanzó un pico entre los años 2017 y 2018, presentando un decrecimiento a partir del año 2019. Asimismo, se observó que la producción, colaboración entre autores y la cantidad de revistas es predominantemente brasileña. application/pdf text/html https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/ICS/article/view/10433 10.34096/ics.i45.10433 spa Universidad de Buenos Aires, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/ICS/article/view/10433/9627 https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/ICS/article/view/10433/9685 Información, cultura y sociedad; No. 45 (2021): Diciembre; 95-112 Información, cultura y sociedad; Núm. 45 (2021): Diciembre; 95-112 1851-1740 1514-8327 Bibliometrics Library and Information Science Information Literacy Latin America Scientific Journals Informational competences Bibliometría Bibliotecología y Ciencias de la Información Alfabetización Informacional Competencias Informacionales América Latina Revistas Científicas Information literacy in ​Library and Information Science.
