Resumo

Current Research Information Systems from universities can supplement the data offered by international multidisciplinary databases such as WoS or Scopus, especially in disciplines where coverage in these is not sufficiently comprehensive.This study examines characteristics of journal articles in the fields of social sciences and humanities that were published by professors and researchers from two Catalan universities.Data were extracted from databases providing free access to the records of both academic institutions' scholarly production.The results obtained reveal the importance of open access to these kinds of records, as well as the existence of differences among areas of knowledge in quality, level of collaboration, percentage of disclosure, and language of publication, although there is a general trend towards a greater relative use of the English language.
