Mapping the Convergence of Digital Humanistic Scholarship and LIS: A Bibliometric Study

The intersection of digital humanities (DH) and library science has fundamentally reshaped libraries, transforming them from traditional repositories into active collaborators in digital scholarship. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the current state and evolution of research on DH and libraries from 2004 to 2024. Researchers gathered data from the Scopus database in October 2024. Afterwards, the data was structured to ensure relevance for analyzing outputs from contributors, sources, countries, and affiliations worldwide using Biblioshiny and VOSViewer. This study presents data on publication patterns, most cited documents, annual growth, collaborations, and network mapping of digital humanities literature within the context of libraries. The study shows a significant research trend over time, with a spike in 2014 and 2020, with Warwick as the most relevant author and the USA as the leading producing country. This topic allows further investigation beyond libraries worldwide. The current study is unique in that it examines digital humanities in the context of libraries using data from Scopus. The topic is still evolving and is thus in its infancy. The findings are helpful to researchers in determining future research directions.

Bibliometric and Science Mapping Analysis of Research on Social Studies Education for Students with Special Needs (2000-2024)

Introduction: Social studies education for students with special needs has become an increasingly important field of research as inclusive education advances. However, the temporal development of scientific production, prominent actors, and collaboration structures in this field have not been investigated comprehensively. This study aims to reveal the structural and trend-related characteristics of the field by analyzing the bibliometric properties of research published in this domain.Method: This study was a review based on bibliometric analysis. Publications indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection and published between 2000 and 2024 were included in the analysis. The literature search was conducted on March 19, 2025. Bibliometric analyses were carried out using the Bibliometrix package and VOSviewer software. Publication and citation trends, as well as country, institution, and author productivity and collaboration networks, were examined.Findings: The findings indicate a significant increase in publications over the past decade and reveal that scientific output is concentrated within a relatively small set of countries, institutions, and authors. Collaboration networks among authors and countries display a structure organized around central cores.Discussion: The results suggest that knowledge production in the field has not yet reached a fully integrated structure. Increasing international and interdisciplinary collaboration, encouraging research conducted across diverse educational contexts, and diversifying studies focused on inclusive social studies education are identified as key strategies to enhance the field’s scientific visibility and impact.

Bibliometric Analysis of the B Corp Movement: Implications for Researchers in Türkiye

This study aims to map the intellectual and conceptual landscape of the B Corp movement within the scientific literature through a quantitative bibliometric analysis. Utilising the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection database, the research analyses 108 peer-reviewed articles published between 2007 and 2025. Data visualisation and network analysis, including co-authorship and keyword co-occurrence, were performed using the VOSviewer software. The results show that the number of publications has been growing exponentially since 2011, and the majority of the articles are in the business and management field. A total of 282 keywords were evaluated, and “B Corp” (total link strength: 315) and “Corporate Social Responsibility” (total link strength: 92) were identified as central conceptual pillars. The most cited influential work is by Julie Battilana and Alnoor Ebrahim, with 728 citations. Geographic concentration is still strong in the USA and Europe, but research on emerging economies, such as Türkiye, where there are presently 15 certified B Corps, is critically lacking. The results show a conceptual move from general corporate responsibility to specific issues of 'social impact' and 'employee ownership'. The paper concludes with a research agenda for future research that can help bridge the gap between global norms and local institutional contexts, particularly for researchers in Türkiye.

Mapping the Intellectual Landscape of Global Film Industry Research: Comprehensive Bibliometric Analysis (2015–2024) using Google Scholar

This study presents a bibliometric analysis of global film industry scholarship published between 2015 and 2024, with data collected through early 2025. Drawing on 478 publications and 7,458 citations indexed in Google Scholar, it maps the intellectual structure, thematic clusters, collaborative networks, and geographic distribution of contemporary cinema research. Google Scholar was selected for its broad coverage of interdisciplinary film studies, though its limitations relative to curated databases are acknowledged. Systematic data extraction was conducted using Publish or Perish (PoP) software with Boolean search queries; inclusion criteria prioritized peer-reviewed articles and book chapters directly addressing film industry dynamics. Bibliometric indicators h-index (27), g-index (68), hI,norm (27), and hI,annual (2.45) reflect strong scholarly impact, with 15.06 citations per paper on average. VOSviewer network visualization revealed five thematic clusters: industry structure and global cinema; Chinese and Asian film industries; film marketing and box office economics; gender, diversity, and cultural politics; and technology integration including AI. Geographically, China, South Korea, Nigeria, and India constitute the most active non-Western research foci. Author collaboration networks remain largely fragmented, signalling underexplored opportunities for international partnerships. Theoretically, the study contributes a field-wide structural mapping that connects dispersed strands of cinema scholarship, offering a synthesis framework for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers navigating rapid industry disruption. To the authors' knowledge, no prior study has combined citation metrics, network visualization, and thematic analysis across a comparable corpus of global film industry research over a sustained decade.

Mapping the evolution of digital learning and student engagement: scopus-based bibliometric analysis of themes and trends

This study examines and maps the intellectual structure of research linking digital learning and student engagement, a body of work that has expanded rapidly across several disciplines and become difficult to see as a whole. Addressing the absence of a single consolidated map at this specific intersection, it applies bibliometric analysis to journal articles indexed in Scopus, retrieved with a title–abstract–keyword strategy that combined digital-learning and engagement terms and limited to open-access, final-stage, English-language articles. The retrieved set comprised 771 records; after a transparent, rule-based validation step that set aside one record dated outside the coverage range, 770 articles published between 2023 and 2026 formed the analytical dataset. Keyword co-occurrence, citation, temporal-overlay, and co-authorship analyses were visualised in VOSviewer. Author-keyword analysis shows that the field is organised around a core of online learning (178 occurrences), student engagement (164), and higher education (144), with a recent shift (average publication year ≥ 2025) toward personalised learning, technology-enhanced learning, digital learning, educational technology, and artificial intelligence. Citation influence concentrates in 2023 and centres on chatbots, generative AI, self-efficacy, and interaction in online classes, led by a study on chatbots for goal setting and social presence (224 citations). Scholarly contribution is broadly distributed: 94.5% of the 2,685 contributing authors appear on a single article, indicating a wide community of many independent teams. The study contributes a consolidated, evidence-based map in which engagement functions as the conceptual hinge between the technological and psychological strands of digital-learning research, and it shows that recent attention is moving toward intelligent and personalised digital environments.

Mapping the intellectual landscape of assessment literacy in academic writing: A bibliometric review of Scopus publications (1997–2025)

Bibliometric studies have become an important approach for understanding the development and structure of research fields; however, global investigations focusing specifically on assessment literacy in academic writing remain limited. This study aims to map publication trends, collaboration patterns, influential sources, and thematic structures in research on assessment literacy related to academic writing through a bibliometric analysis. Data were retrieved from the Scopus database using the search query TITLE-ABS-KEY (“assessment literacy” AND “academic writing”), covering publications from 1997 to 2025 without restrictions on document type or discipline. A total of 176 documents were analysed using VOSviewer and Microsoft Excel to examine annual publication growth, source journals, subject areas, countries, institutions, author collaboration networks, and keyword co-occurrence patterns. The findings reveal a significant increase in publications after 2011, indicating a paradigm shift from summative assessment toward formative, reflective, and feedback-oriented approaches in academic writing. Research output is dominated by institutions and authors from the United Kingdom, the United States, and China, with Assessing Writing and Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education emerging as key publication venues. Keyword analysis identifies four dominant thematic clusters: formative feedback and peer assessment, academic writing pedagogy and literacy development, assessment tools and rubrics, and issues of identity, equity, and institutional power. In contrast, themes related to digital literacy, automated feedback, and AI-based assessment remain weakly represented, indicating important research gaps. This study contributes to the literature by providing a comprehensive global overview of assessment literacy research in academic writing and highlighting emerging directions for future studies. The findings offer strategic insights for researchers, educators, and policymakers in developing contextualized, technology-responsive assessment models aligned with the demands of 21st-century higher education.
