Abstract

This study aims to determine the LIS sub-fields studied in Turkey and compare them with world LIS literature through keywords and abstracts of 460 peer-reviewed articles published in two LIS journals in Turkey (TL and IW) using VosViewer visualization software. Results of the study reveals that although sub-fields of LIS studied in Turkey similar with World LIS literature, it also has its own characteristics. While bibliometrics and library science are common sub-fields; LIS field in Turkey differs by the means of sub-fields named as records management and reading habits.
