摘要

期刊覆盖率是评估数据库时要考虑的一个重要因素。在这项研究中,我们统计了两大工程和计算机科学协会出版商(电气和电子工程师协会(IEEE)和计算机协会(ACM))在2018-2022年新出版期刊上的文章数量(包括早期获取文章)。然后,我们将这些数字与这些期刊在Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection、Scopus和Google Scholar (GS)中的文章数量进行了比较。结果表明,GS对所有被评估期刊的覆盖百分比更高,并且在新出版期刊的索引速度方面优于WOS和Scopus。这项研究的结果将有助于图书馆员在参考、指导和馆藏发展方面评估每个数据库。

Mind the Gap: Understanding Coverage Breaks of Newly Launched Engineering and Computer Science Journals in Core Databases
Journal coverage is an important factor to consider when evaluating a database. In this study, we counted the number of articles (including early access articles) in newly-launched journals (2018-2022) from two major association publishers in engineering and computer science: the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). We then compared these numbers with the number of articles from these journals in Web of Science (WOS) Core Collection, Scopus, and Google Scholar (GS). Results indicated that GS had higher percentages for coverage for all the journals that were assessed and outperformed WOS and Scopus in terms of how fast newly-launched journals were indexed. Findings from this study will help librarians evaluate each database in reference, instruction, and collection development.
