Abstract

This study looks into bibliometric studies in library and information science (LIS) to learn more about the influence of professional collaborations and multidisciplinary publication. It centers on user behaviour, digital libraries, and information management. The study uses bibliometric methodologies to examine authorship trends, geographic distribution, research paper length, and references. The results enhanced comprehension of the importance of library science in academic communities by emphasizing its function in handling intricate problems and promoting information sharing. Data from the Research Review International Journal of Multidisciplinary has been used in the study.
