Abstract

Abstract A brief communication appearing in this journal ranked UK‐based LIS and (some) IR academics by theirh‐indexusing data derived from the Thomson ISI Web of Science™ (WoS). In this brief communication, the same academics were re‐ranked, using other popular citation databases. It was found that for academics who publish more in computer science forums, theirhwas significantly different due to highly cited papers missed by WoS; consequently, their rank changed substantially. The study was widened to a broader set of UK‐based LIS and IR academics in which results showed similar statistically significant differences. A variant ofh,hmx, was introduced that allowed a ranking of the academics using all citation databases together.
