Call for manuscripts on "Scientific information"

[Tomàs Baiget]

Dear colleagues, 

The international scientific journal "El Profesional de la Información"
(EPI) is planning its July/August 2015 issue (v. 24, n. 4) on 

"SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION". 

Topics may include:
* Information sources (databases, journals, books, repositories,
harvesters, publishing platforms...).
* Information retrieval systems, search engines...
* Dissemination, outreach and scientific collaboration in social
networks, reference managers...
Product and service evaluation and comparison. Do we have the resources
we need? Are the conventional databases worth in a market dominated by
the major search engines and publishing platforms? Can harvesters
compete with Google? Will someone be able to compete with Google?

We are especially interested in theoretical and methodological studies,
although we may also accept novel practical experiences.

We publish articles in English or Spanish.

Please follow the rules for authors on:

Please submit your manuscript through our journal management and
publishing system (OJS) on RECYT (Spanish Repository of Science and
Technology), EPI section:
