The Red Iberoamericana de Innovación y Conocimiento Científico (REDIB) is an open-access aggregation platform for peer-reviewed scientific journals produced in the Ibero-American region. Its central purpose is to raise the visibility of research published in Spanish, Portuguese, and the other academic languages of the region that are structurally underrepresented in global citation indices such as Web of Science and Scopus.[1] The platform indexes open-access journals, books, and audiovisual materials and provides a citation-based ranking of indexed journals.
History
REDIB took shape in September 2015 at the meeting of Ibero-American university rectors convened by Universia, the university network linked to Banco Santander. It was formally constituted in 2017 as a joint venture between Spain's Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) and Universia, which at that time brought together over 1,300 universities across twenty countries.[1] The founding rationale was explicit: the two dominant global indices, Web of Science and Scopus, provided systematically uneven coverage of research published in Spanish and Portuguese, leaving large bodies of peer-reviewed Ibero-American scholarship with limited international reach.[2]
In 2017 REDIB entered a collaboration with Clarivate Analytics to enrich the bibliographic records of REDIB journals that were simultaneously indexed in Web of Science. That collaboration produced the first Ibero-American Journal Rankings in May 2018: a citation-based ranking of journals within the REDIB collection, computed using Web of Science data and a methodology that accounts for expected citation rates by subject area. REDIB published subsequent editions of the ranking annually.
Coverage and scope
REDIB functions as an aggregator rather than a primary publisher: it harvests metadata and full-text links from journals that meet its quality requirements, which include peer-review documentation, open access licensing, and editorial stability. By the end of 2021 the platform indexed more than 4,000 peer-reviewed journals drawn from 23 countries across the Ibero-American space.
Comparative bibliometric studies position REDIB alongside Latindex, Dialnet, the DOAJ, and Google Scholar Metrics as one of the main regional alternatives to the Anglo-centric global citation ecosystem. Unlike those platforms, REDIB limits its scope to open-access content and supplements basic indexing with a proprietary citation indicator — the Normalized Citation Impact Percentile — which contextualises each journal's citation performance relative to other publications in the same subject area and year.[1]
