Abstract

Atıf analizi, bilimsel araştırmanın etkisini değerlendirmek için yaygın olarak kullanılan bir yöntemdir. Bu yöntem, büyük veri analitiğinden yararlanarak akademik etkiyi ölçme, entelektüel ilişkileri belirleme, bilimsel iletişimi haritalandırma ve bilgi alanlarını tanımlama konusunda fikir edinmek için h-index ve dergi etki faktörü gibi ölçümleri kullanır. Bu çalışmada TRDizin'de indekslenen Türk Kütüphaneciliği Dergisi yayınlarının araştırmalara etkisi analiz edilmiştir. Analiz kriterleri olarak ilk alıntıya kadar geçen süre ve disiplinler arası dağıtım seçildi. TRDizin'de 2002-2022 yılları arasında yayınlanan 816 çalışmadan 292'si analize dâhil edilmiştir. Bulgular, indekslenen yayınların yalnızca dörtte birinin alıntı aldığını ve %59'unun kütüphanecilik ve bilgi bilimi dışındaki alanlardan geldiğini ortaya koymuştur. Türk Kütüphanecilik Dergisi'nin, özellikle eğitim ile kütüphane ve bilgi bilimi çalışmalarının kesişiminde, disiplin içinden ve dışından büyük ilgi gören önemli bir ulusal bilgi ihracatçısı olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu sonuçlar, Türk Kütüphaneciliği Dergisi'nin net bir bilgi ihracatçısı olarak ulusal ölçekte diğer araştırma disiplinlerine katkıda bulunma potansiyelini göstermektedir.

Published, Not Perished, But What is the Impact? Measuring the Research Impact of Turkish Librarianship Journal Through Citations

Abstract

Citation analysis is a widely used method for assessing the impact of scientific research. This method uses metrics such as h-index and journal impact factor to gain insight into measuring scholarly impact, identifying intellectual relationships, mapping scholarly communication, and defining knowledge domains by leveraging big data analytics. This study analyzed the impact of the Turkish Librarianship Journal publications indexed in TRDizin on research. Time-to-first citation and interdisciplinary dissemination were selected as the analysis criteria. Of the 816 studies published in TRDizin between 2002 and 2022, 292 were included in analysis. The findings revealed that only a quarter of the indexed publications received citations, and 59% came from fields other than library and information science. It is found that the Turkish Librarianship Journal is a crucial national knowledge exporter, especially at the intersection of education and library and information science studies, drawing significant interest from inside and outside the discipline. These results indicate the potential of the Journal of Turkish Librarianship as a net exporter of knowledge to contribute to other research disciplines on a national scale.
