In this study, we analyzed the research trend of social network analysis. We investigated how this topic can be linked to the information science. We analyzed 163 articles that were retrieved from searching "social network analysis" in the keyword search field from 2000 to 2009. The study revealed the fast growth of the research of social network analysis in recent years. Also, the study showed that social network analysis has been applied to many cognate disciplines including management science, education science, and administration science. Finally, the study showed that social network analysis is a field equally important to information science as to other disciplines. Particularly, the study demonstrated that social network analysis can be applied to bibliometrics, including webmetrics.

본 연구의 목적은 국내 문헌정보학 프로그램의 현황과 문제점을 고찰한 후, 이와 개선을 통하여 효율적인 교육과정의 개선방안을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 질적인 서술방식과 계량적연구를 병행하여 수행하였다. 질적인 연구에서는 기존의 연구결과와 현황에 근거한 문헌정보학의 최근 동향에 대하여 서술하고, 기록보존 관련과목과 사서교사교육과정과 관련된 내용에 대하여 고찰하였다. 계량적 연구의 수행을 위하여는 먼저 문헌정보학을 3개분야 (도서관학, 정보학, 서지학과 기타분야), 15개 세부영역으로 나누어 분류하였다. 이 분류방식에 근거하여 준비된 설문지를 사용하여 대구경북지역 내 도서관 현장근무자 및 재학생들의 요구를 파악하기 위하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 206개의 이용가능한 데이터를 수집하여 여러 종류의 기술적, 추리적 통계분석방법과 SPSS를 사용하여 분석한 계량적 연구의 주요발견사항을 함께 기술하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 급속히 변화되는 사회 및 교육환경에 맞는 문헌정보학 교육과정의 개편에 일조할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In recent years, the changes in information technology have been so dramatic and the rate of changes has increased so much that information science research rigorously evolves with the passage of time and proliferates in diverging research directions dynamically. The aims of this study are to provide a global overview of research trends in information science and to trace its changes in the main topics over time. The study examined the topics of research articles published in JASIST between 1985 and 2009 and identified its changes during five 5 year periods. The study found that the most productive area has consistently been 'Information Retrieval', followed by 'Informetrics', 'Information Use and Users', 'Network and Technology', and 'Publishing and Services'. Information retrieval is a predominant core area in Information Science covering computer-based handling of multimedia information, employment of new semantic methods from other disciplines, and mass information handling on virtual environments. Currently Informetric studies shift from finding existing phenomena to seeking valuable descriptive results and researchers of information use have concentrated especially on information-seeking aspects, so adding greater sophistication to the relatively simple approach taken in information retrieval.

The field of bibliometrics and its applications are extensive. This paper deals with firstly the origin and development as well as definition of bibliometrics, secondly the research areas and basic laws in the field, thirdly the various techniques used in bibliometric analyses according to the fundamental bibliometric data : publications. references and citations, and producers of scientific publications, and finally the applications of bibliometric techniques, including those in librarianship and information management, and those in the study of science and scientists.

This study aims to investigate bibliometric services practices of foreign libraries by service types and suggest practical considerations for Korean libraries wishing to implement bibliometric services. Through the examination of previous research and library websites, nine types of bibliometric services were identified under two broad categories - education & consulting services and research evaluation & research trend services. According to the service types, a wide range of bibliometric services activities were analyzed and described. Recommendations from the study for service development include: building an institutional repository for scholarly output; developing subject guides and education programs at the initial phase of service and providing more advanced services such as consulting and analysis services at the later phase; identifying the potential service needs of researcher groups.

In this study, we aimed to identify the types of acknowledgments in Korean LIS journal articles and to find out whether there are differences in the bibliometric characteristics of journal articles based on the types of acknowledgments. For the analysis, the acknowledgments, references, and citation counts of 2,143 articles published in four representative journals in the field of library and information science in Korea for nine years from 2013 to 2021 were obtained as data. We analyzed the contents of 1,433 acknowledgments in 1,311 articles (61.2% of all articles) to divide them into types and then examined the bibliometric characteristics of each type of article. The acknowledgment types were broadly divided into the 'ethics' type (avoiding duplicate publication) and 'thanks' type, which were further subdivided into 9 and 10 types, respectively. We examined the number of references, recency of references, and citations as bibliometric characteristics, and found that all of these characteristics differed between the types of acknowledgements.

연구개발에 종사하는 연구자나 연구기획자들은 미래에 어떤 기술 또는 연구 분야가 각광을 받을지 파악하기 위해 정보를 수집하거나 분석한다. 그러나 방대한 정보 중에서도 정말 필요한 정보를 단시간내에 효과적으로 수집하기는 쉽지 않다. 기술기획이나 연구기획의 경우 현재의 연구동향이나 현황을 빠른 시간안에 정확히 파악하는 것이 주된 관심사이며, 이것을 지원해 줄 수 있는 연구방법론 중 하나가 계량서지학이다. 본 연구는 계량서지적 분석결과를 효과적으로 이해할 수 있도록 시각화 기법을 이용한 정보분석 방법론을 다룬다. 발표동향 분석, 공동연구네트워크분석, 수준지수분석, 특허인용네트워크를 통한 인용트리분석 등을 이용하여 전자종이(e-Paper)기술분야에 대해 분석하였다. 본 연구는 정보분석에 있어 비전문가라도 신속하게 정보분석 결과를 획득할 수 있도록 KISTI에서 개발한 정보분석시스템인 KnowledgeMatrix S/W와 이를 응용한 S/W를 활용한 방법론을 제시한다. 본 연구에서 사용한 방법론들은 실제로 연구사업에 활용하고 있거나 활용가능성이 매우 높은 방법론을 이용하였기 때문에 향후에도 널리 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.

This study aims to examine Blockchain research trend using bibliometrics-based network analysis. The data were collected from WoS, Scopus, Korea Citation Index and National science & Technology Information Service, from 2009 to 2018. As results, the number of publications has started increasing rapidly from 2017 and it showed the initial stage of formation of coauthor network. Words often used in the title of the publications were related to application development, controversy and technology development. In addition, the majority of domestic papers are in the subject of social science, while international papers tend to focus on engineering issues. The results of the temporal analysis show that Korean researchers' block chain 3.0 started in 2017 and are rapidly increasing in 2018. The number of citations was associated with publication year in a statistically signifiant way. By examining these research trends, we hope that this paper can be a useful basis for the development of blockchain. Future research is expected to reveal more clearly the knowledge structure and characteristics of blockchain around the world.

Recently, some bibliometric researchers tried to use the centrality analysis methods and the centrality measures which are standard tools in social network analysis. However the traditional centrality measures originated from social network analysis could not deal with weighted networks such as co-citation networks. In this study. new centrality measures for analyzing bibliometric networks with link weights are suggested and applied to three real network data, including an author co-citation network, a co-word network, and a website co-link network. The results of centrality analyses in these three cases can be regarded as Promising the usefulness of suggested centrality measures, especially in analyzing the Position and influence of each node in a bibliometric network.

This study reviews articles in published in the The Journal of Korean Biblio Society for Library and Information Science (JKBSLIS) over 5 years from 2010 to 2014 for identifying the academic characteristics and the recent research trends of the JKBSLIS. 300 articles of JKBSLIS are analyzed in terms of bibliometric factors, research theme, methodology, author keywords, and intellectual structure comparing with 344 articles of the Journal of Korean Society for Library and Information Science (JKSLIS) and 283 articles of the Journal of Korean Society for Information Management (JKOSIM). In results, there is no differences between JKBSLIS and the other two journals, JKSLIS and JKOSIM regards on bibliometric factors. The domain research areas in the JKBSLIS are 'Information Services', 'Library Management' and 'Reading Education'. It is also found that the most popular methods are 'survey' and 'case study' and that the main research areas in the shown intellectual structure are 'public library & reading', 'academic library & collection management', and 'school library & information literacy education'.
