“Nowa Biblioteka. Usługi, Technologie Informacyjne i Media” [“The New Library. Services, Information Technology and Media”] as a tool for the popularisation of scholarship (a bibliometrical analysis of a periodical)

Summary/Abstract: In the community of scholars scholarly periodicals perform various functions, inter alia they create a space for communication in the said community, they are the first outlet where results of research may be published or they are helpful in the evaluation of scholarly literature. Serial publications may also furnish inspiration for the flourishing of scholarship itself. After the Arianta database we assume that in Poland 84 library science and scholarly information periodicals are published. One of such titles is “Nowa Biblioteka. Usługi, Technologie Informacyjne i Media” (until 2014 known as “Nowa Biblioteka. Zeszyty Monograficzne Koła Naukowego Bibliotekoznawców Uniwersytetu Śląskiego”). Until the end of 2015 the periodical of the Student Association of Library Scientists of the University of Silesia in Katowice was the only periodical of student library science associations on the citation index list of periodicals of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education – Part B. Bytaking these reasons into account one performed a bibliometrical analysis of the periodical.The study material involved all publications featured in the periodical since its establishment in 2015. Serial publications were studied in depth. The formal and content-related features were taken into account, which in this case applied only to the part Artykuły i komunikaty [Articles and reports], thus showing the directions of research of scholars. The statistical changes of the “Nowa Biblioteka” were presented as well as the estimated directions of development.
