Se presenta un análisis de las folksonomías desarrolladas en los gestores bibliográficos sociales, como medio para identificar el potencial uso de las mismas en la recuperación de información en entornos digitales poco controlados. Se propone también identificar métodos y técnicas no contempladas actualmente en esos sitios web, para mejorar la calidad de las folksonomías en cuanto herramientas para la recuperación de la información. A tales fines, se estudian las folksonomías desarrolladas en los gestores bibliográficos CiteULike, Mendeley y Bibsonomy. Se detallan sus principales características en cuanto a tipo, forma y construcción de las etiquetas. Se describen también las interfaces de creación y edición de etiquetas en cada uno de estos gestores. Se concluye que las folksonomías pueden resultar útiles para la recuperación de información en los gestores bibliográficos, en función de la forma y estructura con la que son creadas, y se proponen nuevos métodos y técnicas para mejorar la calidad de las mismas. = An analysis of the folksonomies developed in reference management software is performed, as a way to identify their potential use for the information retrieval in low controlled digital environments.
