| Abstract: | The study presents an analysis of 536 papers published on library and information science education during the period 1995 to 2004. The productivity of authors and core periodicals have been determined using Lotka’s and Bradford’s law. Literature growth, country-wise distribution of papers and language pattern have also been studied. Literature growth in this area of LIS has been found to be negative. Most of the papers have been contributed by single authors (72.8%) and two authors (20.69%) and 72 % of literature is published in 72 journals. |
