Abstract
The Medical Library Association (MLA) has defined 7 domain hubs aligning to different areas of information professional practice. To assess the extent to which content in the Journal of the Medical Library Association (JMLA) is reflective of these domains, we analyzed the magnitude of JMLA articles aligning to each domain hub over the last 10 years. Bibliographic records for 453 articles published in JMLA from 2010 to 2019 were downloaded from Web of Science and screened using Covidence software. Thirteen articles were excluded during the title and abstract review because they failed to meet the inclusion criteria, resulting in 440 articles included in this review. The title and abstract of each article were screened by two reviewers, each of whom assigned the article up to two tags corresponding to MLA domain hubs (i.e., information services, information management, education, professionalism and leadership, innovation and research practice, clinical support, and health equity & global health). These results inform the MLA community about our strengths in health information professional practice as reflected by articles published in JMLA.
医学图书馆协会(MLA)定义了7个领域中心,与不同领域的信息专业实践相一致。为了评估《医学图书馆协会杂志》(Journal of the Medical Library Association, JMLA)的内容在多大程度上反映了这些领域,我们分析了过去10年JMLA文章与每个领域中心对齐的数量。从Web of Science下载2010 - 2019年在JMLA发表的453篇文章的文献记录,并使用covid - ence软件进行筛选。13篇文章在标题和摘要综述中因不符合纳入标准而被排除,共纳入440篇文章。每篇文章的标题和摘要由两位审稿人筛选,每位审稿人为文章分配了最多两个与MLA领域中心(即信息服务、信息管理、教育、专业和领导、创新和研究实践、临床支持和卫生公平与全球卫生)相对应的标签。这些结果告诉MLA社区我们在健康信息专业实践方面的优势,正如发表在JMLA上的文章所反映的那样。
