The prominence of universities as centers for the publication of scientific journals in Latin America has been assessed in different works; however, few studies have described these scenarios from a historical perspective that recovers the characteristics of the first publications and their contexts. This research focuses on the survey of journals published during the foundational period of the Universidad Nacional del Litoral (1919-1943), and their characterization according to formats and contents presented. Out of a total of 13 periodical publications surveyed, we found the existence of journals that present a hybrid genre between scientific and informative discourse; a smaller group that we call "teaching journals", dedicated to teaching and the publication of practical exercises for students; and a majority of publications (7 journals in total) dedicated to the communication of the results of scientific research. This paper focuses on these pioneering scientific journals, which marked the beginning of a path of academic publications in the context of a founding moment in the creation of research institutes and consolidation of scientific careers, and coinciding with the development of extension policies. Studying the processes between the beginnings of the UNL in light of the present allows us to postulate an editorial will that extends throughout the history of the institution.
