Multidimensional Journal Evaluation: Analyzing Scientific Periodicals beyond the Impact Factor

[Stefanie Haustein]

Dear colleagues,

for those of you who are interested, my thesis got published at De
Gruyter and is now available in print or as an ebook:

Haustein, S. (2012): Multidimensional Journal Evaluation. Analyzing
Scientific Periodicals beyond the Impact Factor, Berlin / Boston: De
Gruyter Saur.

http://dx.doi.org/10.1515/9783110255553

I compared and summarized different aspects of evaluating scholarly
journals including old and new citation-based indicators (e.g., SNIP,
fractional-counted IF), downloads and alternative methods to measure
journal usage (e.g. social bookmarking and tagging), rejection rates and
publication delay, and focused on the different user groups of journal
evaluation: readers, authors, librarians and editors/publishers.

Kind regards,

Stefanie Haustein
