In any case, we only address in this review the results that are directly associated with Google Scholar. Since the study reviewed only analyses a limited sample of certain document types (those classified as “Economic and Sector Work” or as “Technical Assistance”) and a very specific timespan (2008-2012), in the discussion section we intend to find out in which degree the reports published by the World Bank are indexed and cited in Google Scholar. To do this, the contents of the World’s Bank Knowledge Repository (OKR) are analysed finding that only the 17.1% of the 15,319 documents deposited in the OKR are indexed in Google Scholar, and 60% have received at least one citation.}, organization = {EC3: Evaluación de la Ciencia y de la Comunicación Científica}, publisher = {EC3: Evaluación de la Ciencia y de la Comunicación Científica}, keywords = {Google Scholar}, keywords = {World Bank}, keywords = {Reports}, keywords = {Citations count}, keywords = {Coverage}, keywords = {Visibility}, keywords = {Diffusion}, title = {The World Bank’s policy reports in Google Scholar.
