Show moreThe main purpose of this article is to reveal the effect of self-archiving on the citation impact of preprints in Information Science & Library Science (LIS). The arXiv and WoS database are used and all citations from WoS are collected to address two key questions—one is the share of papers published in the core LIS journals that also deposited in arXiv and time lags in publication process, the other is the differences in aging characteristics and citation impact of journal articles deposited in arXiv compared to those not deposited—through statistical and bibliometric analysis. The results show that the proportion of journal articles deposited in arXiv is low but there is an overall increasing trend, nearly 80% of all arXiv papers are preprints and authors are more likely to post the paper to arXiv when it is received or accepted by a journal, the preprints enjoy a boost in early citations and the citation advantage decrease with the increasing author productivity, the citations to arXiv version papers indicate an OA effect of arXiv.

Show moreThe Second National Enterprise Innovation Survey was conducted in China in 2017, targeting industry, construction and service sectors. This survey used to a large extent the Oslo Manual as reference in terms of norms and standards and drew on lessons and experiences from innovation survey practices in EU countries. However, there were additional contents to it, such as, survey of entrepreneurial groups. According to the results of the 2017 survey, approximately 40% of the enterprises surveyed had innovation activity and around 8% of them achieved 4 kinds of innovation; the innovation success rate of the manufacturing industry was relatively high and the innovation activeness of large-sized enterprises was the highest; cooperative innovation was conducive to enhancing market competitiveness; insufficient cognition of innovation, relatively high costs of innovation and lack of elements for innovation were believed to be the major obstacles to corporate innovation; and finally, the outcome of implementation of innovation policies was widely approved among the entrepreneurial groups.
