Gestão da Informação científica: o Portal de periódicos da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

It shows that journal articles, as a source of scientific information, are fundamental in universities. The light of information technologies, the number of periodicals in electronic media grows. UFRJ, as a major knowledge producer, regularly publishes 55 titles in several areas of knowledge, in a fragmented and dispersed way, making it difficult for the community to absorb it and the global knowledge of its production. The System of Libraries and Information (SiBI), with the objective of identifying, gathering and disseminating current, electronic and printed periodicals, published at UFRJ in its various fields of activity, created the "UFRJ Portal of Periodicals" -www.portaldeperiodicos.sibi .ufrj.br. This measure, in addition to providing visibility to the titles, disseminates academic production in an organized way, reflects the wide and interesting diversity of UFRJ research lines, registered in the form of periodical articles.
