Abstract
- Over five decades, Information Technology and Libraries (and its predecessor, the Journal of Library Automation) has influenced research and practice in the library and information science technology. From its inception on, the journal has been consistently ranked as one of the superior publications in the profession and a trendsetter for all types of librarians and researchers. This research examines ITAL using a citation analysis of all 878 peer-reviewed feature articles published over the journal's 51 volumes. Impactful authors, articles, publications, and themes from the journal's history are identified. The findings of this study provide insight into the history of ITAL and potential topics of interest to ITAL authors and readership. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
