No obstante, los profesionales de la información mediante sus códigos de conducta pueden ayudar a la sociedad a evitar la diseminación de noticias falsas, pero también ayudados por la tecnología.

Dissemination of the Fake News has vastly emerged in the digital era. Any type of information true, false, biased or misleading can be spread through any digital platform. There are different ways and forms of delivering information. Additionally, any type of institution or professional as media, journalists, political parties, politicians or financial companies are constantly on the arena of the Fake News. Fake News alter the reality and as a consequence is difficult to change receiver mind. Information professionals have an opportunity to engage its communities through good practices based on information literacy fighting against any type of information disorder. Relating to an information unit as an archive or a library when keeping information on the long term, professionals need to follow a code of conduct to provide objective information to its patrons. However, this code of conduct is not only a librarian or an archivist responsibility but also from who creates the original information. Focusing on dissemination and information disorders there are ethical issues that involve information professionals. In this paper, we analyse cases of unethical information behaviour in different fields. At the same time, we explore ethical codes of conduct on information professionals, in relation to the spread of the fake news on digital platforms. As a conclusion, this paper will provide guidelines to avoid unethical information behaviour in relation to information disorder.

This paper aims to perform a bibliometric and gender perspective analysis of scientific publications in Scopus and Web of Science in the area of Peruvian nursing. A bibliometric analysis design was used. The analysis comprised 130 articles in Scopus and 104 articles in Web of Science. The main indicators included the annual production of articles, the most cited authors and articles, and a thematic analysis of the keywords. In terms of authorship in Scopus, there are seven women among the first 10 authors, but in Web of Science, there are only 3. For citations, female nurses and authors at Scopus receive a higher proportion of citations than males. However, in Web of Science, male nurses receive proportionately more citations. Regarding the first 10 journals we found on the Web of Science, Emerging Source Citation Index journals have more indexed articles than Journal Citation Reports journals. The statistical correlation coefficient between the articles published in Scopus and Web of Science is 0.92. The scientific production in Peru in the nursing field shows no female bias in Scopus, but that is not the case for Web of Science. In addition, the total number of articles published in Peru respecting other fields is low, as is the level of international collaboration between the authors.
