Abstract

This study examines articles published in the "Journal Library & Information Science Research: An International Journal." A scientometric analysis was conducted on 298 contributions from 32 issues over an eight-year period (2015–2022). It was found that the highest number of contributions, 47 (15.77%), were published in 2022. The majority of contributions (100 out of 298) were authored by two individuals. The degree of collaboration varied between 0.56 and 0.82, with an average degree of collaboration of 0.71 during the selected period. Standard statistical tools were used to ensure credible outcomes. This study highlights trends and collaboration patterns in research published in the journal, providing insights into the evolving dynamics of authorship and research productivity in the field of library and information science. The analysis demonstrates how collaborative efforts have become more prominent over the years, indicating a shift towards more cooperative research endeavors. These findings are crucial for understanding the development and dissemination of knowledge within the field.
