Discovering Open Access Art History: A Comparative Study of the Indexing of Open Access Art JournalsEvans, Siân; Thompson, Hilary; Watkins, Alex
The Serials librarian, 08/2011, Letnik: 61, Številka: 2Journal Article
This article evaluates the indexing of open access art journals in four frequently utilized art indexes: Art Full Text, ARTBibliographies Modern, Art & Architecture Complete, and Bibliography of the History of Art/International Bibliography of Art. The authors also compare the indexing of open access journals in Google Scholar to that in the traditional indexes mentioned above and demonstrate that the commercial indexes currently lag behind Google Scholar in terms of content coverage. This article argues that increased indexing of open access art journals in the traditional, subject-specific indexes will be integral to their acceptance within the discipline of art history.
