The aims of this study were to (i) assess the expectations of general practice departments regarding health sciences libraries' subscriptions to journals and (ii) describe the current general practice journal collections of health sciences libraries.
A cross-sectional survey was distributed electronically to the thirty-five university general practice departments in France. General practice departments were asked to list ten journals to which they expected access via the subscriptions of their health sciences libraries. A ranked reference list of journals was then developed. Access to these journals was assessed through a survey sent to all health sciences libraries in France. Adequacy ratios (access/need) were calculated for each journal.
All general practice departments completed the survey. The total reference list included 44 journals. This list was heterogeneous in terms of indexation/impact factor, language of publication, and scope (e.g., patient care, research, or medical education). Among the first 10 journals listed, (96.6%), (90.9%), the (85.0%), (70.0%), (69.7%), and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (62.5%) had the highest adequacy ratios, whereas (4.2%), the (16.7%), (29.4%), and the (33.3%) had the lowest adequacy ratios.
General practice departments have heterogeneous expectations in terms of health sciences libraries' subscriptions to journals. It is important for librarians to understand the heterogeneity of these expectations, as well as local priorities, so that journal access meets users' needs.
本研究的目的是:(i)评估全科医学部门对健康科学图书馆期刊订阅的期望;(ii)描述健康科学图书馆当前的全科医学期刊馆藏情况。
通过电子方式向法国的35个大学全科医学部门进行了横断面调查。要求全科医学部门列出他们期望通过其健康科学图书馆订阅获取的10种期刊。然后制定了一份期刊排名参考清单。通过向法国所有健康科学图书馆发送的一项调查来评估对这些期刊的获取情况。计算每种期刊的充足率(获取量/需求量)。
所有全科医学部门都完成了调查。总参考清单包括44种期刊。该清单在索引/影响因子、出版语言和范围(如患者护理、研究或医学教育)方面存在差异。在列出的前10种期刊中,[具体期刊名称1](96.6%)、[具体期刊名称2](90.9%)、[具体期刊名称3](85.0%)、[具体期刊名称4](70.0%)、[具体期刊名称5](69.7%)和Cochrane系统评价数据库(62.5%)的充足率最高,而[具体期刊名称6](4.2%)、[具体期刊名称7](16.7%)、[具体期刊名称8](29.4%)和[具体期刊名称9](33.3%)的充足率最低。
全科医学部门对健康科学图书馆期刊订阅的期望存在差异。图书馆员了解这些期望的差异以及当地的优先事项很重要,这样期刊获取才能满足用户需求。
