Article
Objective: Information studies with an emphasis on ethnic-racial themes in Information Science research are still incipient, especially in the field of bibliometric studies. The article aims to investigate the production and use of scientific knowledge in the research field of racial studies through bibliometric and altmetric indicators. Methods: The research has an exploratory approach, with quantitative and descriptive analyzes of 4,000 records and their citation data, which retrieved from the Dimensions database based on searches for the descriptors ´Afro-Brazilians´ and ´Afro-Americans´. Thematic orientation for the co-occurrence of terms was carried out in VOSviewer and the altmetric data processed via the Altmetric API using the Python programming language. Results: The publications cover the period between 1970 and 2020. On Afro-Brazilians, were identified discussions about topics related to teaching, education, quotas in universities and representation of black women in literature. As for African-Americans, the themes revolve around the health of the black population and racial disparities with other ethnic groups. The online attention of the articles was measured by altmetric data and citations, there was a great contrast between publications about the two populations. Conclusions: The data indicate that ethnic-racial themes attract interest inside and outside the academy, and have the potential to be addressed from multiple perspectives, in the most diverse academic fields. Black Librarianship professionals and Information Science researchers have a vast field to carry out research and build decolonized and anti-racist scientific knowledge.@en

O artigo busca investigar a produção e uso do conhecimento científico no campo de pesquisa dos estudos raciais por meio de indicadores bibliométricos e altmétricos. Método: A pesquisa de abordagem exploratória e caráter quantitativo e descritivo analisa 4 mil registros e seus dados de citação recuperados na base de dados Dimensions a partir de buscas pelos descritores ‘afro-brasileiros’ e ‘afro-americanos’. A orientação temática pela co-ocorrência de termos foi realizada nos VOSviewer e os dados altmétricos processados via API do Altmetric por meio da linguagem de programação Python. Resultado: As pesquisas foram publicadas entre 1970 e 2020. A discussão afro-brasileira está centrada em temáticas relacionadas das humanidades e representação da mulher negra na literatura enquanto a afro-americana, gira em torno da saúde da população negra e as disparidades raciais com outros grupos étnicos. A atenção-online dos artigos foi mensurada por dados altmétricos e citações, observou-se grande contraste entre as publicações sobre as duas populações. Conclusões: Os dados indicam que as temáticas étnico-raciais atraem o interesse dentro e fora da academia, e têm potencial para serem abordadas sob múltiplos enfoques, nas mais diversas áreas do conhecimento.
