School Library Research : A bibliometric study (English)
Abstract [en]

The aim of this study was to map the school library research field for the last 20 years.The research questions asked were:1. Which researchers and publications can be identified in the research base of school library research in the time period 1995-2014, and what relations can be identified between them?2. Which researchers and publications can be identified in the research front of school library research in the time period 1995-2014, and what relations can be identified between them?3. Which terms can be identified in school library research in the time period 1995-2014?To answer these questions, a bibliometric study of the research field was done through publications retrieved from the database Web of Science. The metadata of the documents were analyzed in VOSviewer, a software program used to find relations between publications, researchers and subject terms. The research methods used were co-citation analysis, bibliographic coupling and co-word analysis.The results indicate that Lance and Kuhlthau dominate the research base with their publications about information literacy, information searching and school library impact studies. The research front is focused on use of electronic resources, digital media and information literacy. Clyde and Montiell-Overall are the main researchers.
