Citation Patterns followed in Research Papers of the DESIDOC Journal of Library & Information Technology
Get PDFThe paper presents Citation patterns of 6914 citations appearing in 399 papers published in DESIDOC Journal of Library & Information Technology from 2012 to 2018. The researcher identified in the paper were Volume-wise Analysis of Citations per Article, authorship pattern, forms of literature, Chronological Analysis of Citations and a ranked list of top 25 cited Library Science journals. The most cited author of DESIDOC Journal of Library & Information Technology was Gupta B.M. The study finds that highest number of citations was single-authored (51.59 %), and 6.72 % citations were from books and only 55.07% citations were from journals. Chronological distribution of cited reference has been analyzed that the maximum number of citations are covered during the period of 2001-2010 i.e. 55647 (38.18 %)

Setting Priorities: New Directions for the Weill Cornell Medical Library and the Library Information Technology Association
No full textOn November 21, 2011 from 3PM to 4PM in 2B48 Kroch Library, the Library Forum Steering Committee presented a talk by Colleen Cuddy, Director of the Samuel J. Wood Library and C.V. Starr Biomedical Information Center at Weill Cornell Medical College, and also the President of the American Library Association group Library Information Technology Association (LITA). Ms. Cuddy's presentation focused on some of the challenges facing medical libraries and library associations with a focus on the Weill Cornell Medical College and Library Information Technology Association.1_59oo82f
Applicability of Inverse Square Law of Scientific Productivity in DESIDOC Journal of Library & Information Technology
Get PDFThe popular quoted statement of Lotka’s law is attempted to apply in the domain of DESIDOC Journal of Library & Information Technology. The authors contributed their views in the journal published since its first volume up to its 38th volume is considered in the study. The attempt has been made to test the mathematical formula i.e. a(n) = a(1)/n2 with the dataset developed during the study. Moreover, most productive authors who have contributed their views in the DESIDOC Journal of Library & Information Technology are also identified
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
