Se describe la evolución de los portales temáticos (subject gateways) desde sus orígenes a finales de 1990 (coincidiendo en el tiempo con el directorio de Yahoo, Altavista y otros motores que no usaban el análisis de enlaces) hasta su situación actual con un análisis más detallado de Intute, el caso ejemplar. El objetivo es determinar cuál es el pa...
An overview of the evolution of open access (OA) to scientific publications over the last 20 years is presented. This retrospective look allows us to make two observations that seem to overlap: on the one hand, how close the initial objective seems to be to what initially seemed utopian and, on the other, the unanticipated and solid obstacles that...
Academic journals have been incorporating several elements of open science: open access (since 2000), later, the deposit of research data of the articles published, the dissemination of preprints before the publication of the paper and, finally, the open peer review (OPR). While open access is well-established and the inclusion of research data is...

Universities first taught Library and Information science (LIS) studies in Spain in 1982, reaching a zenith at the end of the 1990s. However, from 2000 onwards, student enrolment began to drop and some programmes closed, producing a crisis in the studies on offer, which is yet to end. The evolution of LIS education in Spanish universities over 40 y...
Preprints are increasingly relevant for fast dissemination of research results. This article analyses its use in the EDICIC 2019 conference, where authors were requested to deposit their preprints before the conference in order to encourage interaction among participants and to push their publication in refereed journals as a substitute for confere...
Transformative agreements, also known as ‘offsetting’, ‘read and publish’, or ‘publish and read’ agreements, have shifted the focus of scholarly journal licensing from cost containment towards open access publication. An analysis of 36 full‐text transformative agreements recorded in the ESAC registry shows that ‘transformative agreement’ is an umbr...
