To identify the core journals that publish articles on mosquito research, the Agricola database (covering 1985-89 citations) was analyzed. This source contained 3,007 citations to mosquito research, and the citations were found in 404 different serials. Whereas 10 serials (2.5% of total serials) in Agricola produced 50% of the citations, almost one-half of the serials in this source contained only one citation to mosquito research. Fifteen journals (the core journals) contained greater than 1% of total citations. The number of citations found among 126 different databases and abstracting services that were examined varied: 39 had no citations to mosquitoes, but 13 (including life-sciences, medical and even popular-literature databases) had greater than 100 citations. The choice of core journals will be an increasingly important decision by biological libraries as costs for journal subscriptions rise.
为了确定发表蚊子研究文章的核心期刊,对农业与生物科学数据库(涵盖1985 - 1989年的文献引用)进行了分析。该数据库包含3007条关于蚊子研究的文献引用,这些引用分布在404种不同的连续出版物中。在农业与生物科学数据库中,10种连续出版物(占连续出版物总数的2.5%)产生了50%的引用,而该数据库中几乎一半的连续出版物对蚊子研究仅有1条引用。15种期刊(核心期刊)的引用量占总引用量的比例超过1%。在所审查的126个不同数据库和文摘服务中发现的引用数量各不相同:39个没有关于蚊子的引用,但有13个(包括生命科学、医学甚至大众文学数据库)的引用量超过100条。随着期刊订阅成本的上升,对于生物图书馆而言,选择核心期刊将成为一项越来越重要的决策。
