The paper demonstrates the use of eXtensible Markup Language (XML) files from the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) for the creation of a citation database for the journal "Perspectivas em Ciência da Informação". A demonstration of the utility of this citation database is presented by providing a bibliometric view of the journal for the period in which the XML files were available in SciELO (from 2006 to 2014). 532 papers were analyzed and results showed 387 papers using 10.266 citations (145 papers without citations associated). The aim of this article is to highlight the possibility of automation of bibliometric analysis from the proposed methodology - and therefore the data are presented without any disambiguation treatment. Reports are presented based on Garfield's initial models (1972) for the Science Citation Index (SCI): journal citation frequencies, statistics on cited journals and statistics on cited journals. The application of the methodology to other journals indexed in SciELO is suggested.
