An attempt has been made in this paper to identify the research productivity on the bibliometircs subject published from 2013 to 2017 in the Web of Science database. 1422 research articles on bibliometrics published in various library science journals and indexed in the web of science database is considered as a basis of data for the study. In this article we made an attempt to analyze the pattern of publication of 1422 research articles. The study involved on various bibliometric components such as annual growth rate, authorship pattern, distribution of contribution by country wise, language wise, institution wise, most prolific author in the field, high productivity of Journals, etc are studied. On an average 284 articles were published in each year during the study period and highest number of articles are recorded in the year 2016. Further, USA is a contributed the highest number of research articles (22.2%). The journal "scientometric" ranks as the first core journals in the subject of library science by contributing 37% of the total publications. Finally, the study concluded that there has been consistent growth of literature in the field of bibliometric studies and also given data set well fitted with the Bradford law of scattering of literature.
Web of Science is a major citation database which provides access to the world's leading scholarly literature. University of Goa is the only premier higher education institutes which cater the educational needs of the Goa. The present study evaluates the research productivity of University of Goa based on the data collected from Web of Science over a period of ten years from 2008 to 2017. This article studied the publication pattern, trend, collaboration with different organisations, institutions, R&D Centres and different nations. Top funding agencies in Science and Technology field research performance of faculty members of Goa University in last ten years. 1218 articles including 497 international collaborated articles with an increasing growth rate during the study period. Analysis revealed that Current Science journal is the most preferred journal among Goa University faculty members. It has been found that 315 (25.86%) publications belong to Chemistry subject. It is clear that relative growth rate of total research output is decreased gradually. The growth rate is 0.84 in 2009 and which decreased up to 0.15 in the year 2017. It is observed that the SJR and h-Index are the highest for the journal 'Fungal Diversity'. It is suggested to get more international funding by collaborating with more and more authors, universities and R&D centres.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
