ABSTRACT

The behavior and trends of research activity on digital libraries, from the bibliographic production embodied in international literature and compiled in databases Scopus and Web of Science between 1995-2014, was analized. A retrospective search covering the 20 years elapsed between 1995 and 2014 was conducted in the databases Scopus and Web of Science. Bibliometric methods for scientific activity and information visualization techniques were used to represent the results and make qualitative assessments. Classic document analysis was used to identify a number of theoretical and conceptual aspects related to the topic. 1,421 documents were retrieved from Scopus and 378 from WoS. In both cases fluctuations were found in the temporal evolution of papers. The most productive years in both databases were 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2011 and 2012. The most productive country in the subject of digital libraries was the United States with 491 papers indexed in Scopus and 146 in WoS. Regarding the types of information sources, papers ranked first in Scopus with 764, whereas proceedings from professional events predominated in WoS with 194. The most productive authors in both databases were Ch. Papatheodorou, G. Tsakonas, A. Blandford, D. Goh and A. Shiri. Research about digital libraries included in the scientific literature reached its peak in the second half of the first decade of the 21st century. A larger number of documents about digital libraries was found in Scopus than in the Web of Science.
