The editorial article: an opinion from backstage
Abstract
The author defines the editorial articles, provides their types, and its meaning from the perspective of the "kitchen" or "backstage" of the journal. Using a core collection of titles specialized in Library & Information Science, identifies the majority existence of the article editorial, their various section names and characteristic features: leading articles or presentations of the papers of each journal issue. The author attempts an explanation for this disparity and reflects on the commitment that involves identifying problems and express opinions.Downloads
