在學術傳播中,引用文獻揭示正式傳播的模式與學術影響,本研究是以1998年至2008年資訊科學重要期刊Information Processing and Management、Journal of Information Science及Journal of Documentation為研究對象,利用引用文獻分析法,分析近年來資訊科學引用參考文獻之情形,以瞭解資訊科學學門研究的學科及主題範疇。
研究結果發現,西文資訊科學期刊引用參考文獻的類型以期刊為主,圖書與會議文獻次之。在文獻分布方面,並不完全符合布萊德福與布萊德福─齊夫定律,其核心期刊主題以資訊科學及圖書資訊學為主,僅有兩種期刊偏向電腦科學。參考文獻引用的學科以圖書資訊學門為主,此外更涉及科學、社會科學及科技學門,著重於數學、電腦科學;科學總論;工業、土地用途、勞工;一般語言學;電機、電子、核子工程、電腦硬體;科技總論等。在期刊引用的學科範疇偏向圖書資訊學門及電腦科學,然而在圖書引用方面,圖書資訊學所佔比例未如同在期刊引用,且對於社會科學的引用比例亦提高許多。
深入分析圖書資訊學相關圖書與期刊的主題,發現重要議題包含:機械化(電腦)資訊檢索及書目控制、圖書館學與資訊科學、索引摘要、編目、各類型圖書館、參考服務、圖書館資訊網路、電子資源等。而圖書資訊學文章熱門研究主題有:搜尋、線上資訊檢索、資訊工作、全球資訊網、資訊儲存與檢索、主題索引法、技術服務、資訊尋求行為、評估及研究、引文分析、書目計量學、資訊科學、使用者調查等。
本研究結果可應用於館藏規劃與評估,界定重要的期刊與圖書文獻來源,有助於圖書館或相關研究單位評估資訊科學相關館藏是否足以支援研究。同時可將研究之分析應用於資訊科學學術研究,提供研究人員近年來資訊科學引用學科之變化及研究主題趨勢等相關資訊,作為資訊科學學者進行研究規劃之參考。 / As an artifact of scholarly communication, citations reveal formal communication patterns and scholarly impact. By Citation Analysis, this study explores the related disciplines and subjects with Information Science through investigating the important Information Science journals: Information Processing and Management, Journal of Information Science, and Journal of Documentation during the period 1998 to 2008.
Results show that the main documentation type of Information Science citation is journal, and followed by book and conference. The distribution of Information Science citation does not exactly fit Bradford’s Law and Bradford-Zipf Law. Of the citation, the chief field of core journals is Information Science and Library & Information Science; only two core journals are about Computer Science. The primary discipline of citation is Library & Information Science. However, it also involves with Science, Social Science, and Technology, such as Mathematics, Computer Science; General Science; Industries, Land use, Labor; General Philology and Linguistics; Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Nuclear Engineering, Computer Hardware; General Technology and so on in particular.
From further examination of subjects of the cited Library & Information Science journals and books, some important topics are found: Machine Methods of Information and Retrieval, Mechanized Bibliographic Control; Library Science, Information Science; Indexing and Abstracting; Cataloging; Classes of Libraries; Reference Services; Library Information Networks; Electronic Information Resources and so on. On the other hand, popular research subjects of the cited Library & Information Science journal articles are Searching, Online Information Retrieval, Information Work, World Wide Web, Information Storage and Retrieval, Subject Indexing, Technical Services, Information Seeking Behavior, Evaluation, Research, Citation Analysis, Bibliometrics, Information Science, User Surveys, etc.
Finally, the results of this study can be applied to collection planning and assessment, and identify the core journals and books. It assists libraries or information centers in evaluating the adequacy of Information Science collections to support research. Meanwhile, it provides researchers with recent trends of Information Science research.
