文献计量学方法或“分析”现在已牢固地确立为科学专业，是研究评估方法的一个组成部分，特别是在科学和应用领域。这些方法越来越多地用于研究科学的各个方面，也用于机构和大学的全球排名。已经完成了足够数量的研究，有了所产生的文献，现在可以使用文献计量学自己的方法来分析它。本研究的文献计量学文献是从Web of Science中提取的，使用与Jonkers等人的方法相当的方法将其分为两部分（图书馆与信息科学（LIS）和其他期刊中的文献计量学文章的特征，第449-551页）：出版物要么属于信息与信息科学（ILS）类别，要么属于非ILS类别，其中包括更多的应用，“主题”为基础的研究。不同分类的影响是通过使用标准化数据的引文分析来判断的，从1994年起，在非ils类别中可以观察到几乎线性的增长。讨论了文献计量学方法在不同背景下传播和使用的意义。关键字分析确定了文献计量学分析涵盖的最受欢迎的主题，多学科文章显示出最大的影响。在那些提供文献计量分析的国家中，观察到明显的转变，以及在提供和接受参考文献方面的自我延续效应。
Bibliometric methods or “analysis” are now firmly established as scientific specialties and are an integral part of research evaluation methodology especially within the scientific and applied fields. The methods are used increasingly when studying various aspects of science and also in the way institutions and universities are ranked worldwide. A sufficient number of studies have been completed, and with the resulting literature, it is now possible to analyse the bibliometric method by using its own methodology. The bibliometric literature in this study, which was extracted from Web of Science, is divided into two parts using a method comparable to the method of Jonkers et al. (Characteristics of bibliometrics articles in library and information sciences (LIS) and other journals, pp. 449–551,: The publications either lie within the Information and Library Science (ILS) category or within the non-ILS category which includes more applied, “subject” based studies. The impact in the different groupings is judged by means of citation analysis using normalized data and an almost linear increase can be observed from 1994 onwards in the non-ILS category. The implication for the dissemination and use of the bibliometric methods in the different contexts is discussed. A keyword analysis identifies the most popular subjects covered by bibliometric analysis, and multidisciplinary articles are shown to have the highest impact. A noticeable shift is observed in those countries which contribute to the pool of bibliometric analysis, as well as a self-perpetuating effect in giving and taking references.
