Abstract
This paper deals with the evaluation of monographs in the context of the special importance that they have as a means of communication of the results for human and social sciences research. First, a revision of some of the projects developed at institutions from various countries which have applied diverse methodologies and indicators to monographs, and in which the valuation of publishers has had a relevant position, is offered. Second, a working plan is presented, which includes a methodological proposal aimed at the evaluation of the prestige of publishers and based on a double consultation of lecturers and publishers which they consider as the most prestigious. Finally, the indicators applied in the various projects analyzed are discussed, concluding with the evident necessity of creating an evaluation method with multiple indicators.
