| contents | The Use of Public and Business Administration Literature in the Field of Library Science: A Citation Analysis. Taler, Izabella Books Business Administration Citation Analysis Higher Education Library Administration Library Science Monographs Public Administration Scholarly Journals This citation analysis of the use of public and business administration literature in the field of library science examined library science monographs and the last four years (1990-93) of "Journal of Library Administration." The monographs were published between 1980 and 1992 and were selected on the basis of a favorable review in the library literature or frequent citation in library sources. Also selected for inclusion were library science monographs which addressed at least one of the following functional elements of management: planning, organizing, staffing, directing, coordinating, reporting, or budgeting. In total, 7,049 citations were analyzed. A general statistical analysis of the total citations showed that overall, 3,853 (55%) of sources cited were those in business and public administration as compared to 3,248 (45%) of library science sources. This figure is even higher (61%) if citations in "Journal of Library Administration" are examined separately. One table presents data on the use of library science versus business and public administration literature as cited in monographs; the data indicate the three areas which draw most on non-library science literature are planning, coordinating, and directing. A graph presents a ranking of the use of library science versus non-library science literature from 1981-92. (Contains 49 references.) (MES) |
