Abstract
The bibliographic references included in a set of reference works and proceedings on Spanish language and literature are analysed. The weight of different documentary types –monographs, periodicals and proceedings– as a communication channel in the discipline is determined. The rankings of most cited publishers and journals are also established. Subsequently, an exhaustive analysis of the bibliographic references to journals in the most cited periodicals is done. Results show a considerable use of alternative communication channels to articles in academic journals, as books or newspapers. The rankings of most cited titles in both phases of the study are coincident and so are with those obtained in previous studies and with the listing of journals indexed in the Arts and Humanities Citation Index, showing its validity.

Para establecer el intervalo de la bibliografía citada de los veinte y los diez últimos años, se tomó como fecha de documento citado más reciente el año 1999, ya que sólo había un documento correspondiente a 2000, frente a 72 correspondientes a 1990 y a 79 de 1980. Una vez descontadas las referencias en las que no figuraba nombre de editorial o para las cuales no se contaba con fecha de publicación, se obtuvieron unos rankings por editoriales en los que se continuaba observando una gran dispersión.
