Abstract

Objetive. Identify the characteristics and relevance of publications in scientific event, the impact of citations (h-index, g-index and citation/year) and the generation of an impact index. Method. The method that applied to investigated was identify the 277 teachers of the Information Science postgraduate schools, and was developed a software to discover the perform and the filtering of the data of the curriculum Lattes (the ProspectorWare), and was used for complementary analysis the Google Scholar and Publish or Perish to identify the impact indexes. Results. The main results we had a very high frequency for scientific events has a National Symposium of Research in Information Science (ENANCIB) and International Society for Knowledge Organization (ISKO) in terms of publication, but the most frequently cited meetings were Intercom, SBPC and ISKO (all with more than 75 citations/year). For the g-index we had as highlight Intercom, ISSI, SBPC and National Encounters of Production Engineering (all with index higher than 15), and for the h-index was Intercom and SBPC (with index higher than 10). In relation to the quality factor system we once again highlight Intercom (factor 68,19), SBPC (factor 15,32), ISSI (13,55) and National Meeting of Production Engineering (11,45). Conclusions. We consider it relevant to highlight that this study is a first contact with the quantification of the quality of the scientific meetings in the Information Science and that it must undergo adjustment in a second attempt, however, it was evident that meeting with larger structures and with the concern in providing content in receive more quotes.
