IDENTIFICATION OF CORE JOURNALS IN SCIENCEAND TECHNOLOGY: A STUDY BASED ONINSDOC'S DOCUMENT DELIVERY DEMAND.PART II - CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY

High demand core journals in chemistry andchemical technology were identified throughthe analysis of document copy requests receivedby Insdoc during 1980-1985. It was found thatonly 131 identified journals out of 759 che-mistry journals could satisfy a majority of docu-ment demand in chemistry and chemical tech-nolgy. The list of 131 COre journals is alsocompared favourably with the rank list of theBritish Library Document Supply Centre(BLDSC) and also with that of the ScienceCitation Index (fCR 1984).

In this part, attempts have been made to drawa core list of journals in the field of chemistryand chemical technology by analysing therequests received for document supply atINSDOC through the years 1980-1985.

The present study aims at :

compiling a list of top 50 core journals inchemistry and chemical technology;

identifying the journals (from the list drawn)available in National Science Library (NSL)and the other parts of the country;

the countries of origin of these journals;

identifying the holdings of such journals inthe Indian libraries in some metropolitancities with the help of the computer print-out of the Union Catalogue of ScientificSerials in India coming shortly in the printedform as well.

For this purpose individual rank lists wereprepared for each year after analysing the docu-ment supply demands received by the DSS(Documen t Supply Service) of INSDOC from1980-1985. All titles receiving a demand of atleast 4 times have been included in the corelist of individual years. The data for all the 6

years were then consolidated and the final listwas drawn comprising the identified journals inthe field of chemistry and chemical technology.

RESULTS

a) 131 journals in chemistry and chemicaltechnology (Table 1) were identified, thecutt-off point being 20 demands.

b) A list of 50 most cited journals (Table 6)out of the total 131 journals identified wereprepared. It was found that 63.14% ofrequests in the field of chemistry and chemi-cal technology were satisfied by the top 50journals only in the core list.

c) The country of origin of these 131 journalswere identified (Table 2). USA was foundto top the list followed by USSR, UK,Germany and others. India occupies the6th position in this list.

d) NSL receives 44 journals out of the 131 inthe core list (Table 3). It was found thatNSL is receiving all the 11 Indian journalsidentified in the core list.

e) 11 Indian journals were identified in thecore list, their relative positions being8,9,45,66,70,91,106,109,111,114 and 117respectively according to the demandsreceived for them (Table 4). However, thesepositions of the journals does not reflectthe actual demands for them as many libra-ries in India receive them (Table 5).

f) Availability of these 131 journals in the 6metropolitan cities viz. Delhi, Calcutta,Bombay, Bangalore, Madras, Hyderabadwere studied from the National Union Cata-logue of Scien rific Serials prin t-ou t (Table5). The highest concentration of chemistry

CORE JOURNALS IN CHEMISTRY & CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY

and chemical technology journals werefound in Calcutta (25.54%); followed byDelhi 23.14%); Bombay (22.92%); Hydera-bad (12.82%); Madras (8.96%) and finallyBangalore (6.59%).

g) 14 translated Russian journals were identi-fied in the ranked list; 9 of them were foundto be published by USA and 5 by UK(Table 6).

h) The ranked list was compared with the"1000 Most Frequently Cited Journals inRank Order" list of CASSI. It was foundthat CASSI covered 103 journals out of the131 journals in the core list.

i) The ranked list of 131 core journals wasalso compared with the ranked list of theScience Citation Index (SCI) from theJournal Citation' Report (JCR) 1984.Though not much correlation was foundbetween the two rankings, most of the top50 journals in the core list were covered byJCR and had quite a good Impact Factor(IF).

CONCLUSION

The National Science Library of INSDOCholds 32.82% of chemistry and chemical techno-

Vol 35 No 3 September 1988

logy journals from the present core list. Itsholdings should further be augmented to renderprompt and better service to Indian scientificcommunity.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The authors are grateful to Shri A. Joseph,Head, National Science Library, Insdoc andShri B.K. Sen for their immense help andguidance in completing the study.
