| Sumario: | [EN] Acknowledgment of scholarly book publishing in Spanish in the scientific evaluation processes requires objective and accurate information about the books, collections and publishing houses. This work presents a study on the prestige of —both Colombian and non-Colombian— scholarly publishing houses based on a survey using the SPI-project model and answered by Colombian teachers and researchers. The survey answer rate was 17%. This study identified the publishing hotspots relevant for the researchers both in the national and international spheres. In total 167 Colombian and 345 non Colombian publishing houses were recognized by the scholars. The ICEE indicator provides an ordered list of publishing houses. The results show how the prestige is concentrated in small hotspots led by college publications. Regarding the national origin, the foreign publishing houses are grouped in two influential “origins”: the Spanish/Ibero-American group with prominent Spanish, Mexican and Argentinian publishing houses and the English/Anglo-Saxon group including American, British and Dutch publishing houses. The quality of the publication, the publisher track record, the specialized fields and the scientific support by the directors are the most important variables when determining the prestige. In the Discussion these results are considered in a broader context of scientific evaluation, bibliodiversity and multilingualism typical to the scientific communication. |
