This article explores how letters to the editor can enhance publishing metrics for journals and authors, and examines letters published in elite journals since 2015. Initial findings reveal potential anomalies in the use of letters and unusual self-citation patterns. The article suggests adjusting the Journal Impact Factor to more fairly account for letters and advocates for transparent explanation of letter submission policies by journals.
This article discusses how letters to the editor boost publishing metrics for journals and authors, and then examines letters published since 2015 in six elite journals, including the Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology. The initial findings identify some potentially anomalous use of letters and unusual self-citation patterns. The article proposes that Clarivate Analytics consider slightly reconfiguring the Journal Impact Factor to more fairly account for letters and that journals transparently explain their letter submission policies.
