Nusrat Ali
I am working as a Deputy Librarian at public sector university. I have more than ten years professional experience and several of my research papers have been published in national and international peer reviewed journals. Currently, I am doing research on library and information science and involved in a number of research oriented project in my area of interests.

Design/methodology/approach – Through a systematic analysis of publications, authors, journals and countries involved in research, this investigation unveils the inherently interdisciplinary nature of the subject. It unveils the prominent journals and influential authors who have made significant contributions to the field, shedding light on the evolving trends and shifting emphases over time.
Findings – The findings underscore the ever-growing relevance and importance of deviance research in contemporary society. They emphasize the pressing need for ongoing exploration to grapple with the intricate challenges posed by deviant behaviors.
Originality/value – This comprehensive bibliometric analysis serves as an invaluable resource, catering to the needs of researchers and practitioners with a vested interest in comprehending and advancing the study of deviance in its myriad manifestations.
This study aims to examine research visualization trends in research data management (RDM), analyzing factors such as contributions, publications, document types, authors and research areas, emphasizing the dynamic nature of RDM research in the scholarly landscape.
Design/methodology/approach:
The study analyzed citation histories for 1,401 publications from 2001 to 2021 in the Web of Science database, extracting no restrictions on document type or language. Literature visualization tools such as Biblioshiny, VOSviewer, ScientoPy and MS Excel were used. The researchers explored institutional collaborations, data-centric trends and RDM frontiers.
Findings:
The majority of RDM research is conducted by librarians and information scientists. Research on RDM has increased over the past 21 years, peaking in 2019. Among universities, Sheffield and Pittsburgh have the most productivity in RDM research, and the USA is the most productive country. Most productive authors are Aleixandre-Benavent-R and Da Silva Jr. RDM; however, improvement is still needed, especially at academic universities.
Originality/value:
This study provides valuable insights into the published literature on RDM and identifies patterns of collaboration among researchers in RDM.
This bibliometric study is steered to compute the impact of literature published on cloud computing within the fields of information science and library science. The research has been conducted on concentrating the term “Cloud Computing” to search the literature published in both fields, i.e. information science and library science from the time span 2007 to August 2023. This study aims to investigate the top productive country, organizations and highly cited publications.
Design/methodology/approach:
The period of the exploration was from 2007 to August 2023 for bibliometric analysis and data was collected from the ISI Web of Science. Total 401 documents were retrieved and analyzed to highlight the year-wise distribution of documents type, year-wise most cited articles, prominent journals of the subjects, productivity of organizations, impact of countries and cooccurrences of keywords. The results are grounded on the basis of documents types (articles, early access articles, proceeding papers, book review, editorial material, news items and reviews).
Findings:
The findings reveal that the most productive year of publication on cloud computing services was 2013. The top productive source is “International Journal of Information Management.” The articles entitled “Assessing the determinants of cloud computing adoption: An analysis of the manufacturing and services sectors” found as the most cited article and the significant increase in citations is also noteworthy. The most productive organizations on the topic include “Islamic Azad University of Iran,” “University Cologne of Germany” and “University Nova Lisboa of Portugal.” The results confirmed that the USA dominates in the production of research on “Cloud Computing Services” and the most repeated keyword in the literature is cloud computing. The research articles are the most cited sources of research.
Originality/value:
This bibliometric research is an original piece of work that has been conducted to measure the research production in the field of information science and library science during 2007−2023. This piece of work is valuable for those who want to study the literature on cloud computing in the area of information science and library science.
Methodology: The study focused on original articles in multiple languages and utilized tools like Biblioshiny and VOSviewer. It explored publication patterns, citation metrics, authorship trends, country contributions, keyword evolution, clusters of related terms, and professional involvement.
Findings: This analysis yielded valuable insights into the research landscape of health literacy during the specified time frame, providing a deeper understanding of the field. The analysis encompassed 3,489 articles, revealing a significant increase in publications since 2019. Prolific authorship did not always correlate with citation impact in health literacy research. Nguyen H.C. emerged as the most cited author, particularly in COVID-19-related symptoms and health literacy. The analysis revealed significant contributions from influential countries such as the United States, Australia, Germany, Iran, and China. “Mental health” emerged as a prominent area of investigation based on keyword analysis. The study also found underrepresentation of nursing professionals but identified diverse health-related professionals and institutes as influential contributors.
information on the subject of “Library Automation Software.”
Design/methodology/approach – This study is based on bibliometric research to analyze the growth of
literature on the subject area “Library Automation Software.” The data were retrieved from the leading
database Web of Science to analyze the scholarly publications on the topic during 2001–2022. To analyze the
bibliometric data on the subject, the VOSviewer, Biblioshiny andMS Excel software were used.
Findings – Results manifest that the topic of “Library Management Systems” has been greatly used by
several authors as a title to publish their research work. The USA emerged as the most productive country.
The most used keywords to retrieve literature on the topic were “Library Automation,” “Library Management
Systems,” “KOHA,” “Integrated Library Systems” and “Open Source Software.”
Originality/value – To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first bibliometric study in Pakistan that
has been conducted to measure the productivity of literature at the international level on library automation.
