Google Scholar Metrics updated

[Alvaro Cabezas]

Dear collegues,

Google released last week a new version of Google Scholar Metrics which
ranks publications by area and category (only for English language
journals), and updates citations indicators until 15 November 2012. There
is also a major policy shift concerning repositories, which now are not
included as a whole but divided into series or collections.

We have performed a quick review, pointing out the new features and the
remaining shortcomings. You may access this new working paper (English and
Spanish versions) at http://digibug.ugr.es/handle/10481/22439
