Abstract
This paper analyzes the presence of professors and researchers from the University of Salamanca on two of the main academic social networks: Reasearchgate.net and Academia.edu. The indicators of each network were studied and compared along with the level of collaboration and scientific diffusion of the teaching and research staff at the University of Salamanca. The study was carried out via by analyzing the profiles of 1005 professors and researchers assigned to 28 different departments within the five areas of study around which the university is structured. A transversal analysis was established according to gender as well as the areas and departments in which the professors and researchers worked. It has been concluded that within this scientific community the use of online social networks is limited, with the majority of use purely for diffusion of academic works.
