Abstract
Information Science's interdisciplinary character and the scarce consensus about its placement within knowledge organization could generate negative effects on its scientific evaluation in Spain. In order to achieve an approximation to the problem and help to find solutions to improve the system, this paper studies the discipline from three perspectives: the location of Information Science studies on Spanish and foreigner universities, thematic structure of committees in charge of research's activity evaluation and, finally, the study of Information Science journals through the analysis of their inclusion on databases. First conclusions don't detect interdisciplinarity on databases, but they do on university organization and on evaluation organisms (or at least a great disagreement concerning placement of this discipline in knowledge organization).
