圖書資訊學刊所揭露的臺灣圖書資訊學研究樣貌

A Snapshot of Library and Information Sciences Studies in Taiwan: From the View of Journal of Library and Information Studies

本研究採用書目計量和內容分析方法，分析圖書資訊學刊於1999至2020年刊登的文章，以勾勒臺灣圖書資訊學研究的樣貌。觀察重點包括研究人口規模、合著程度、研究主題、研究方法以及理論運用。結果顯示國內圖書資訊學領域研究人口在過去20多年有所成長，但其中以進行單次研究與發表的作者比例較高。資訊行為與資訊組織為主要研究主題；除質與量混合設計，新興研究方法也可見於相關研究中。值得注意的是，除研究續航力，圖資研究的理論依附度有限，內容雖提及理論，但與研究設計架構及結果論述關聯不高，多僅限於提及或用以描述研究背景。結果也發現，研究者將書目計量方法運用於不同學科領域研究成果分析，擴展研究的學科範圍，增加與域外領域的連結度。

Bibliometrics and content analysis approaches were adopted in this study to review the papers issued in Journal of Library and Information Sciences from 1999 to 2020 to draw the landscape of library and information science studies, including research population, research subjects, research approaches and theories used. The results showed the growth of the research population, but the high percentage of one-time authors who lacked sustainable research efforts. Classical LIS topics, such as information behavior and information organization with mixed and newly developed approaches were the center of research. Research evaluation by bibliometrics approach expanded the scope of LIS studies. The presentation of theory linkage appeared limited, but increased in later published papers.
