1 Carol Tenopir University of Tennessee email@example.com The role of publishing in the research process

2 1.What are the roles of scholarly publications in research? 2.What is the value of scholarly publications and how does value change with roles? 3.How have things changed?

3 Carol Tenopir, Use and Users of Electronic Library Resources: An Overview and Analysis of Recent Research Studies www.clir.org/pub/reports/pub120/pub 120.pdf

4 Some Important Research Studies SuperJournal (late 1990s) HighWire eJUST OhioLINK CIBER Outsell reports Tenopir & King

5 Tenopir & King Data From: ~30,000 scientists, engineers, physicians, and social scientists 1977 to the present University and non-university settings Recent surveys at U.S. and Australian universities, pediatricians, astronomers

6 What are the roles of scholarly publications in research?

10 Fulltext Sources Online, July 2004. Edited by Mary B. Glose. Medford, NJ: Information Today, twice yearly Growth in Full Text Sources

11 How Many Journals Are Online? Ulrichs 55% of all (~12,000) John Cox survey75% of all John Cox survey83% of STM DOAJ~1600 open access

12 Average Articles Read per University Scientist Average number of articles read per scientist Year of Studies

13 Reading Varies by Subject Discipline and Workplace Univ. medical Practicing Pediatricians Univ. Scientists All Scientists Soc Sci/Psych Humanities Engineers ~322 articles/year ~180 articles/year ~216 articles/year ~130 articles/year ~191 articles/year ~120 articles/year ~111 articles/year

14 Principal Purpose of Reading Scholarly Articles by Faculty and by Pediatricians Purposes Fac Ped Primary Research 32% 5% Current Awareness 22% 50% Teaching 18% 5% Background/other18% 6% Writing Proposals 10% 2% Consulting/diagnosis/treatment 32%

15 Value may vary from use

16 Primary Research32% Current Awareness22% Background18% Teaching18% Writing10% #2 #3 #4 #5 #1 Purpose and Ranking of Importance: Faculty at a U.S. University

17 Current Awareness50% Consulting/treating Other 32% 6% Teaching 5% Research 5% Writing proposals2% #2 #1 #4 #3 #5 #6 Purpose and Ranking of Importance: Pediatricians

18 Value doesnt necessarily equal frequency 1/2 to 2/3 of readings are in the first year of publication, but older articles are rated as having higher value to purpose Ave. time spent on an article by medical faculty is low (20 minutes) and most reading is for current awareness, but the few read for research take more time and are rated much more highly

19 Subject Experts Want More sources More backfiles Sources continue to be available High Quality Speedy access No barriers to access Convenience (getting their work done)

20 Convenience drives usage of e- journals…and it is a relative term among scholars. Stanford e-Just

21 Print or Electronic Astronomers Pediatricians Univ Scientists UNSW

22 Year of Articles Pediatricians Univ Scientists UNSW Astronomers

23 Pediatricians Univ. Scientists Astronomers MethodofArticleDiscovery Method of Article Discovery UNSW

24 Browsing Searching Core titles Current issues Background Current awareness New topics Old articles Primary research For writing

25 Convenience Varies… Astronomers prefer desktop e-access Pediatricians prefer print on the run for journals, PDAs for drug info Researchers sometimes want links to full data, medical practitioners want summarized information

26 What has changed in use and value of scholarly publications?

27 Average Number of Personal Subscriptions to Scholarly Journals

28 Proportion of Readings of Scholarly Scientific Articles

29 Other Electronic articles include:

30 Astronomers Pediatricians Universities 42.9 % 21.4 % 35.7 % 11% 17.2 % 71.7% 49 % 36 % 15 % Sources of Readings

31 Source of Articles Read at Drexel University FacultyDoctoral Students

32 Sample Size: Total = 397, Scientists = 300, Non-Scientists = 97 Source: University of Tennessee (2000), Drexel University (2002), University of Pittsburgh (2003) Source of Article 1 st Year2-5 YearsOver 5 Years Library33.553.273.3 Personal56.328.89.2 Separate10.318.117.5 Total100.1 100.0 Older Readings on Average are Judged to be More Valuable

33 Increase in search Increase in number of sources used (at least one article from over 23 journal titles and more formats) Since library use has increased, do library choices drive usage patterns or vice- versa? How will Google Scholar influence these trends? More changes observed in use and some related questions

34 Print & Electronic Serial Titles in Australian and New Zealand Academic Libraries Source: CAUL Statistics http://www.caul.edu.au/stats/caul2002-pub.xls Print and Electronic Titles Electronic Titles Print Electronic 253,627 17% 1,245,424 83% Individual Electronic Serial Titles Titles Within a Single Publisher Collection Titles Within aggregations 43,301 4% 78,385 6% 1,123,738 90%

35 All readers need to have: Confidence in quality of information (judged by journal title, authors, author affiliation, source, other) Ability to find similar materials (search and browse) Confidence in longevity of source Convenient and timely access

36 Convenience trumps quality every time…. It is the job of librarians [and publishers] to make quality convenient. Stewart Bodner, Associate Chief Librarian, NY Public
