전체 학술지 논문 가운데 오픈액세스(Open Access, OA)가 차지하는 비중은 현재 20%-30%에 이르고 있고, 최근에는 출판 즉시 오픈액세스가 가능한 골드 OA에 대한 관심이 높다. 이 연구는 골드 OA를 출판하기 위한 선결 조건인 ‘논문 처리 수수료(Article Processing Charges, APC)’ 지원에 관한 것으로 연구후원기관과 저자의 재직대학에서 어떠한 정책을 수립하여 실천하고 있는지를 알아보았다. 영국을 비롯한 유럽에서는 수년 동안 연구후원기관의 APC 부담에 관한 타당성 검토와 시범사업을 진행하여 왔고, 현재 본격적으로 시행하고 있는 단계이다. 미국을 비롯한 북미에서는 주요 대학도서관을 중심으로 OA 펀드를 조성하여 APC를 지원하고 있다. 반면에 한국은 연구후원기관과 대학에서 논문의 그린 OA를 추진할 뿐, APC를 지원하여 골드 OA를 출판하는 단계에 이르지 못하고 있다. 주제 분야에 따라 다르지만 국제 학술지에 논문을 출판하는 국내 연구자도 적지 않아 이들의 논문이 골드 OA로 출판된다면 국제적인 파급력은 크게 증진될 전망이다. 이에 국내 연구후원기관과 대학도 골드 OA에 관심을 갖고 OA 전문 학술지와 하이브리드 학술지에서 요구하는 APC를 지원하는 방향으로 정책의 기본 틀을 세우려는 노력을 경주해야 할 것으로 보인다.

Abstract

OA journal publishing has steadily increased its relative share of all scholarly journal articles by about 20%-30%. The ‘Gold’ OA, often preferred by readers, refers to journal articles which are more widely available through the journal’s web site immediately. This study analyzed funder and university’s policy for paying APCs in implementing a Gold OA. In recent years there have been a number of attempts in the UK and Europe to stimulate more systematic arrangements for paying APCs, leading funders have clearly established arrangements in place. Also OA fund made by major universities in North America provides publisher with APCs. On the other hand, it is still in early stages in paying with gold OA requirements from Korean funders and universities. The funders have a ‘Green’ OA policy, such as upload the article accepted version to their online platform. Although it varies by field, many Korean authors are publishing in international journals. Their articles’ impacts would rise when they are published as gold OA. Therefore, funders and universities need to pay attention to gold OA　publishing and set up subsidies for APCs which are required by OA or hybrid journal publishers.

본 연구의 목적은 저자키워드의 출현빈도와 해당 키워드가 속한 논문들의 총피인용횟수 간 상관관계 여부를 확인하고자 하는 것이다. 연구의 배경은 인문사회과학 분야 학술용어사전을 구축하는데 있어서 실제 연구에서의 활용도가 높고 다른 키워드와의 의미적 연관관계가 많은 학술용어를 추출하기 위한 방법론을 개발해 보고자 하는 것이다. 본 연구의 목적을 이루기 위해 한국연구재단 한국학술지인용색인(KCI)에 수록된 2007년에서 2011년까지의 인문학 및 사회과학 분야 학술지 논문의 저자키워드와 피인용횟수를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 저자키워드의 출현빈도와 해당 키워드가 속한 논문들의 총피인용횟수는 통계적으로 상관관계가 있으며, 저자키워드의 출현빈도가 늘어날수록 논문의 총피인용횟수도 많아지는 것으로 나타났다.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to verify the correlation between the appearance frequency of author keyword and the number of citation in journal articles. In this study, we were trying to develop a methodology that can select the term having semantic relation with other terms and higher utilization to build a structured scientific glossary. In order to achieve this purpose, we analyzed the number of citation and the author keyword of the humanities and social science journal articles of the Korea Citation Index (KCI) from 2007 to 2011. This study found a correlation between appearance frequency of author keyword and the number of citation of the journal articles, with higher appearance frequency of author keyword of the journal articles being more cited.

본 연구는 한국연구재단 등재지 1,890종의 저작권 관련 문서를 분석하여 국내 학술지의 저작권 관리 현황과 문제점을 파악하고자 하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 등재지의 32.6%가 저작권 소유에 대하여 어떠한 공지도 하고 있지 않았다. 둘째, ‘규정’을 통하여 공지를 하고 있는 1,141종의 학술지 중에서도 77.1%가 구체적으로 양도할 권리를 명시하지 않고 있었다. 셋째, 발행자측이 저작권을 소유하고 있는 학술지(61%) 중에서 저자에 대한 이용허락을 밝히고 있는 학술지는 매우 적었다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 학술지 발행기관이 논문의 배포 목적과 방법을 명확히 설정하고 그에 맞는 저작권 정책을 마련하여 공지해야 할 것이다.

Abstract

This study analyzed 1,890 KRF journals to understand the current situation and problems related to copyright management by journal publishers. The results of the study are as follows: 32.6% of journals did not provide any copyright notice, 77.1% of 1,141 journals which gave copyright information with regulation documents did not specify the type of author’s property right to be transferred and most of the journals which owned copyright transferred from the author did not specify the permission needed to use their article. This study suggested that journal publishers establish the object and method for distribution of journal articles and then develop and publish their copyright policy suited to their own objective.

Abstract

This study analyzes the open access policies of major scholarly journals that have large number of publicly funded articles, for the purposes of expanding and facilitating the public access. Eighteen scholarly journals in Korea and abroad were selected based on the number of published publicly funded articles through a survey of dissemination of publicly funded journal articles via information from NTIS. The open access policies of the selected journals were analyzed by 5 categories including codification of OA related policy, copyrights, reuse rights, self archiving policy, free access. As a result, this research proposed several considerations for establishing national policies for the collection and distribution of the publicly funded research products.

Abstract

This paper examines the characteristics of the JASIST (Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology) editorial board members and their research areas through author co-citation analysis, and investigates whether the editorial board members’ research areas are related with keywords frequently appeared in the journal’s research articles. In the process, research areas of the central members and those appeared most frequently as keywords will be identified. Research areas of the 36 members on the JASIST editorial board are collected and categorized to compare with the categorization of keywords extracted from 169 research articles published in JASIST, 2013. The result shows that members with higher centrality in the co-citation network are related with research areas that are also dominant in the distribution of article keywords. The areas include information behavior and searching, information retrieval, information system design, and bibliometrics.

Abstract

Electronic publishing has influenced, and in some ways changed, information seeking, reading patterns and citation behaviours. This study collected the Cited Half-Lives, the indicator implies the life-span of scholarly journals, from JCR Social Science edition the before and after of the prevalence of electronic journals, and observed if there are some changes in these two periods. The analysis results of eight disciplines show that the average Cited Half-Lives increased in 2007 than in 1994 for seven disciplines except the demography. Especially in the four disciplines of economics, education, finance and sociology, the average Cited Half-Lives increased significantly. This results show that the concentration, researchers cite more recent articles and concentrate their citations on fewer ones, is lightening and the dispersion of citations is actually increasing. With the online availability of articles and journals the old online materials can be often accessed, used and cited more frequently, the more growth potential of Cited Half-Lives are made in a digital environment. Further research needs to investigate if the phenomenon will become more obvious in various disciplines after a few years.

Abstract

There have been little comprehensive research for studying impact of foreign journals on Korean scientists. The main reason for this is because there was no extensive citation index database of domestic journals for analysis. Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) built the Korea Science Citation Database (KSCD), and have provided Korea Science Citation Index (KSCI) and Korea Journal Citation Reports (KJCR) services. In this article, citing behavior of Korean scientists on foreign journals was examined by using KSCD that covers Korean core journals. This research covers (1) analysis of foreign document types cited, (2) analysis of citation counts of foreign journals by subject and the ratio of citing different disciplines, (3) analysis of language and country of foreign documents cited, (4) analysis of publishers of journals and whether or not journals are listed on global citation index services and (5) analysis for current situation of subscribing to foreign electronic journals in Korea. The results of this research would be useful for establishing strategies for licensing foreign electronic journals and for information services. From this research, immediacy citation rate (average 1.46%), peak-time (average 3.9 years) and half-life (average 8 years) of cited foreign journals were identified. It was also found that Korean scientistis tend to cite journals covered in SCI(E) or SCOPUS, and 90% of cited foreign journals have been licensed by institutions in Korea.

Abstract

A large and reliable citation database is necessary to identify and analyze citation behavior of Korean researchers in science and technology. Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) built the Korea Science Citation Database (KSCD), and have provided Korea Science Citation Index (KSCI) and Korea Journal Citation Reports (KJCR) services. In this article, citing behavior of Korean scientists on Korean journals was examined by using the KSCD that covers 459 Korean core journals. This research dealt with (1) statistical numeric information of journals in KSCD, (2) analysis of document types cited, (3) ratio of domestic to international documents cited and ratio of citing different disciplines, (4) analysis on immediacy index, peak time, and half-life of cited documents, and (5) analysis on impact of journals based on KJCR citation indicators. From this research, we could find the immediacy citation rate (average 2.36%), peak-time (average 1.7 years) and half-life (average 5.2 years) of cited journals in Korea. We also found that the average journal self-citation rate is more than 50% in every field. In sum, citing behavior of Korean scientists on Korean journals was comprehensively identified from this research.

Abstract

In this study, the characteristics of scholarly communication through the Web and scientific journals are explored, and scholarly communication patterns in two scientific disciplines are compared to reveal the difference. Economics and Computer Science－Information Systems are selected as two disciplines to be analyzed. In the data collection process, 10 keywords are extracted from a database for each subject field, and scholarly Web pages and journal articles related to these keywords are collected and analyzed. Our investigation includes the characteristics of scholarly Web pages, Multi-Dimensional Scaling (MDS) analysis of co-linked Web pages as well as co-cited journal articles, and changes in the scholarly communication activities occurring on the Web and in scientific journals respectively over time. We found certain differences as well as common features in scholarly communication patterns between the Web and scientific journals for both fields of Economics and Computer Science. We also found that scholarly communication occurring on the Web displays unique features for each subtopic within the same field of study.

본 연구의 목적은 인용문헌에 나타난 웹 자원의 접근성과 그 변화추이를 분석하여 인용문헌에 수록된 웹 정보원의 가치와 유용성을 평가하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 정보관리학회지에 수록된 웹 자원 1,377건을 추출하여 국내, 국외별 웹 자원의 접근성과 도메인과 파일유형의 웹 자원 접근성 및 접근성 변화추이를 분석하였다. 그 결과 국내 웹 자원은 접근성비율이 40%, 국외 웹 자원은 50%, 도메인 유형은 58%, 파일 유형은 44%로 각각 조사되었다. 또한 인용시간 경과에 따른 웹 자원의 접근성은 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 인용된지 1년 정도가 되면 웹 자원의 23%정도가 접근할 수 없는 것으로 밝혀져 웹 자원의 유용성은 매우 낮은 것으로 평가되었다.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the accessibility of web resources contained in the references section of journal articles. I was identified a total of 1,377 web citations for a major journal in information science over a ten year period. The results show that the accessible ratio of domestic web resources was at 40% and the ratio of foreign web resources about 50%. The accessible ratio of domain type web resources was shown 58% while the same ratio for file type web resources was 45%. This low accessibility of we resources in references poses threat to the overall value of journal articles.
