There is a great deal of cultural divide and philosophical deviation between the traditional information resources being handled by libraries for centuries now and the new genre of electronic and digital information being sourced and accessed. In the traditional paradigm, the books and journals bought and subscribed to by the libraries were naturally owned by them, allowing them to make the best use of the resources within the ‘fair use’ clause or principle... 2011-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dspace.iimk.ac.in:80/xmlui/handle/2259/1045 Bibliometric Analysis of Worldwide Coronavirus Research based on Web of Science between 1970 and February 2020 Khalili, Leila; Sreekumar, M.G. Researchers all over the world are striving hard to find a solution for the coronavirus pandemic and reduce the fatalities from this severe outbreak. The paper aims to study the characteristics of coronavirus publications based on bibliometrics and social network analysis. The study used bibliometric method and social network analysis. Data were collected using Web of Science (WoS) database on 23 February 2020, with 13252 records being retrieved and used as study sample. Descriptive statistics were used in bibliometric method and network analysis. Text Statistics Analyzer and ISI.exe were used to compute the number of author per documents. VOSviewer and UCINET were used respectively for visualization and for measuring the centrality as well as density of networks. Study findings indicate top 10 actors of scientific society (authors, institutions, countries) that had the most publication on coronavirus. Similarly top 10 keywords used by authors were identified. Also the density and centrality measures of co-authorship networks (degree, closeness, betweenness) for top 10 authors, institutions, countries and keywords were identified. Journal of Virology had the highest number of published documents on coronavirus research. Doing effective research projects require knowledge of key actors of each scientific domain and their position in the network. Study revealed that the leading researchers and institutions were mostly from the United States of America, England, China, Germany, Netherlands, France, Canada, Japan, South Korea and Saudi Arabia.

The importance of newspapers for people of all walks of life, institutions, government and countries in general, need not be overemphasized. It is truly a reflection and narrative of a society, status and its culture. Researchers too turn to newspapers for casual as well as quality research. It is interesting to note the continued relevance of the newspapers in the traditional paper format even when the publishing and transmission of news as well as newspapers across the world have migrated to newer paradigms and platforms such as the Web, Blogs, PDAs, Mobiles, eReaders etc. At the same time, newspaper management in libraries pose plethora of problems to librarians. Requirement of vast space, large size racks, extraordinary weight of bound volumes coupled with the damage that the paper undergoes over time are just a few to mention them. Recent developments in technology, especially the digital technologies, have a lot to offer in efficiently combating the above problems. The current information environment prompts libraries to leverage on the latest digital technologies towards building newspaper digital libraries and in setting up dynamic newspaper access and retrieval systems. These newer breeds of information services offer lots of power and visibility to newspapers, especially the old collections. This paper highlights the power of Greenstone software in developing newspaper digital libraries. It also reports the success stories of two large scale newspaper digital libraries - the Papers Past newspaper digital library, a collection of 19th and 20th century newspapers from the National Library of New Zealand and the Singapore National Library. The experience of the Center for Development of Digital Libraries (CDDL) of IIM Kozhikode in setting up a digital library of newsclippings, the digital equivalent of the traditional press clipping service, using Greenstone software is also shared.
