Bibliographica es una revista humanística especializada de investigación y de arbitraje doble ciego, editada por el Instituto de Investigaciones Bibliográficas (IIB) de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), que publica en acceso abierto no comercial y con periodicidad semestral artículos y reseñas sobre temas vinculados con el estudio del libro manuscrito e impreso, la edición y la prensa, desde las primeras manifestaciones gráficas hasta los nuevos soportes digitales, en México y el resto del mundo. Su finalidad es ofrecer un espacio para los estudios de fuentes documentales y propiciar un diálogo académico sobre el pasado, presente y futuro de las mismas, que incluye la reflexión sobre la preservación en plataformas analógicas y digitales. Entre las líneas de investigación privilegiadas por la revista están la bibliografía, la hemerografía, la historia del libro, de la edición y de la prensa, la bibliología y temas referentes al proceso de producción del libro impreso, manuscrito (codicología, paleografía, conformación de archivos documentales, etc.) y el estudio de las fuentes de la cultura escrita, incluyendo los fenómenos inherentes a la transmisión y recepción de los textos, así como cuestiones relacionadas con la preservación documental en todas las plataformas. Dirigida a investigadores, especialistas, profesores y estudiantes de grado y posgrado, Bibliographica se propone ser un espacio para la reflexión sobre estos temas desde una óptica multi e interdisciplinaria, tanto en el ámbito nacional como internacional.
