본 연구는 계량서지학적 측정을 통해 국내 문헌정보학자들의 연구동향을 규명하기 위하여, 국제적으로 가장 영향력 있는 사회과학분야 학술지에 대한 대표적인 인용색인 데이터베이스인 SSCI에 게재된 논문을 대상으로 다양한 관점, 즉 저자별, 주제별, 저널별. 출신학교별, 소속대학별, 연도별, 연령별, 핵심전공주제별, 핵심저자별 및 핵심저널별로 분석하였다. 본 연구는 향후 국내 문헌정보학의 국제화 및 이에 따른 연구방향을 제시하는데 유용할 것으로 본다.

This study is to examine into the research pattern of the domestic library and information science scholars through the bibliometric analysis. It analyzed treatise in SSCI, the model citation index database about the most authoritative social-scientific journals, with various viewpoints, such as authors, subjects, journals, native universities, post universities, years, core of the majoring subjects, major authors and journals. In addition, it analyzed citation factors of another treatise which appeared in SSCI. We foresee it will be useful to indicate the way of study following internationalization.

To investigate the characteristics of Korean researchers who have published journal articles in the international Library and Information Science (LIS) journals, we analyzed the types of institutions of the authors and their disciplines by publication year and journal type. Specifically, we analyzed 819 pieces of author information from 384 articles published between 2005 and 2014 in 31 journals using the existing categories, allowing comparisons of research trends between past and current and between Korean and international researchers. In addition, we used a co-authorship credit allocation method to calculate the credits of individual authors in an accurate manner, and found that 342.6 of 384 papers were contributed by solely Korean researchers. We demonstrated that the internationality and quality of Korean LIS research has increased during this time. In particular, authors who were affiliated with universities took the lead in publishing papers, and we presented that the nature of research might be related to the type of author affiliation. Based on the disciplinary backgrounds of the researchers, we also suggest that LIS research is associated with such disciplines, computer science, management, and communications.

This study suggests the operation method for the internationalization of journal during the beginning period of the first publishing, based on the in-depth analysis on two journals in the area of library and information science, Journal of Informetrics and MJLIS. It recommends that we need some kinds of operation methods for the successful internationalization of the journal; firstly, the necessity for the support organizations, the increase of the numbers of the articles, the support of the authors with various nationalities and in the area of published, the editorial board members with various nationalities having the ability to publish the high quality articles and to make the proper self-citation during the beginning periods of the first publishing of the journal.

The purpose of this study is to lay the groundwork for internationalization of domestic journals in the field of Library and Information Sciences (LIS). This study analyzed the characteristics and trends of 7,302 papers from 38 SSCI journals and 768 papers from 4 domestic journals in LIS. Results show the publication and citation counts of domestic journals to be more evenly distributed than those of international journals, which suggests the presence of core international journals. In addition, citation rates and co-authored papers of international journals are shown to be much higher than that of domestic journals, suggesting that international journals publish research papers of higher impact and collaboration.

It is essential to conduct an analysis of superior journals, facilitate the international distribution of domestic journals, and determine an effective way to promote a journal's international distribution. This study seeks to determine an effective approach to the international distribution of Korean medical and life science journals and investigates the bibliographies, home pages, and databases about four international distribution factors with regard to 90 journals arranged into three categories. For the effective way of distributing domestic journals internationally, we should develope Korean journals with international standards, record the journals' articles in international and domestic databases, raise the rate of international subscription and holding journals. and publish electronic journals linking their electronic files with many databases.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the perception of academic journals and scholarly events published and operated by the four major academic societies in library and information science (Korean Library and Information Science Society, Korean Society for Library and Information Science, Korean Biblia Society for Library and Information Science, and Korea Society for Information Management). An online survey was carried out to know the members' perceptions of journals' quality, number, review process, publication/distribution, readership, practicality, interdisciplinarity, internationalization, and differentiation. In addition, the reasons for participation and non-participation in scholarly events, the degree of achievement of the purpose, differentiation between scholarly events, and ways to revitalize joint academic conferences were examined. A total of 197 members of the four societies completed the survey. The findings showed that the overall quality of the four journals was good, but they still needed to be improved in the review process, publication and distribution, readership, practicality, and internationalization. Strategies to specialize each journal needed to be considered as well. To revitalize scholarly events, large-scale joint academic conferences can be organized to encourage the participation of researchers and practitioners, considering both academic and social aspects of research and practice. This study mainly reported the results of the online survey. Also, it shed light on the suggestions to improve the academic journals and scholarly events in the field of library and information science based on the findings from the case studies of international academic journals and events as well as the group discussions and feedback from the participants at the joint conferenece held in December 2022.

This study analyzed the national diversity of journal editors and authors, focusing on international journals in library and information science, and quantified it through Simpson's Diversity Index. In addition, LIS journals were clustered according to diversity indicators and their characteristics were analyzed, and it was also confirmed whether nationality diversity of editorial members could induce nationality diversity of authors. As a result of the analysis, first, the diversity index of the editors of the LIS (Library & Information Science) international journal was found to be 0.64, which is less than the diversity of the authors, which is 0.76. It was confirmed that as the diversity of nationalities among editorial committee members increases, it is possible to attract authors of various nationalities (r = .79). Second, journals in the IS (Information Science) field showed a high index before or after 0.8 for both editorial members and author contributing countries, but those in the LS (Library Science) field showed relatively low scores, especially among the editorial members, with a very low index of 0.48. Third, the United States has the highest share of both authors and editors, and in particular, it has been confirmed that the LS field has an overwhelming share of 53.39% of editors. On the other hand, in Asian countries, including Korea, the ratio of contributions as editors compared to contributions as authors was found to be lower than in the United States and European countries.

Today, many learned societies are very interested in publishing international journal, especially for titles from non-English speaking countries. In Korea, there is not many studies on publishing international journals except for some cases trying to internationalize domestic journals. This study analyzed international factors of domestic 143 titles offering DOI by KoreaScience. The analysis showed that many of these journals have low impact factors and editorial board without a lot of foreign scholars. Some titles don't have online submission platform or English websites. It is recommended that domestic journals should reinforce international factors including global distribution with visibility to be considered as reputable international journals.
