- Objective: carry out an impact analysis of Cuban publications on INFOLIT produced by Cuban authors in the period 2000-2013, based on the number of citations received. Methods: the papers cited were selected from among the 67 papers contained in the Wiki-Repository INFOLIT / Ibero-America-Cuba, and the citation sources were extracted from the database Google Scholar. The bibliometric indicators used were citations per year, type of citation source, citing journals, most cited authors and papers, and term co-occurrence analysis. Results: 337 citations were identified. Their increase started in the year 2007, when more than 50 % of the papers published each year have received at least one citation. Most of the citation sources were scientific journals, mostly Latin American and from the areas of health, medicine, and library and information sciences, of which 19.69 % were mainstream. Topic correspondence between citing and cited papers was high, with a predominance of the central topics INFOLIT and information competencies in the domain of medicine and health. This trend was also the most perceptible among the most cited Cuban papers, showing high citation indices for few published papers. Conclusions: the impact analysis of Cuban research on INFOLIT herein presented shows the great relevance of these studies for both the national and the international scientific community.
