Previous studies have presented a radical change in library and information science research topics in North America. This article investigates library and information science doctoral dissertations in China in terms of their topics and interdisciplinarity in the past 20 years. The results do not find a significant change in library and information science dissertation topics in China but reveal that the increase of library and information science doctoral research in the area of information science is attributed to an increase in admissions to Information Science majors compared to other majors (Library Science and Archive Studies). This study also shows that the academic background of library and information science doctoral advisors does not affect the interdisciplinarity of their students’ doctoral dissertations in China.

Previous Studies presented a radical change in Libray and Information Science (LIS) research topics in North America. This paper investigates LIS doctoral dissertations in China in terms of their topics and interdisciplinarity in the past 20 years. Results don’t find the significant change of LIS dissertation topics in China but reveal that the increase of LIS doctoral research on Information Science is attributed to the increase of admissions to the major Information Science comparing with other majors (Library Science and Archive Studies). This study also shows that the academic background of LIS doctoral advisors does not affect the interdisciplinarity of their student’s doctoral dissertations in China.

The study presents an overview of the doctoral dissertations awarded in the subject discipline of Library and Information Science in India during 2010 to 2014. Some of the key areas analysed include, year wise overview of the doctoral degrees awarded and their growth on an annual basis. The study also focuses on the popularity of the subject at the state level and in universities across the country. From data analysis, it emerged that 177 doctoral degrees were awarded in Library and Information Science in India during 2010-2014. Of the total doctoral theses awarded in Social Sciences in India during the period of study, a meager 3.05 per cent were awarded in the Library and Information Science. A total of 43 unique institutes and 17 states were identified which awarded doctoral degrees across India at an average of 4.11 and 10.41 degrees each, respectively. Gujarat emerged the most popular state by awarding the maximum 16.38 per cent doctoral degrees and at the institutional level, Baba Bhim Rao Ambedkar University, Marathwada emerged the leading institute with 9.60 per cent of the total doctoral degrees. There is a steady decline in the award of doctoral degrees in India, besides the institutions also do not show any consistency in undertaking doctoral research in LIS in India.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the place of knowledge management (KM) in library and information science (LIS) research. The authors looked for KM articles published in top LIS journals since 2000. Design/methodology/approach The authors analyzed publication trends and the distribution of articles by KM-related terms used, region/country and information-setting type. The authors also identified the top-cited KM articles published in these LIS journals. Findings In total, 672 KM-related articles (only 3.84%) were found within the 17,491 articles published in these LIS journals. Research limitations/implications This low percentage shows that while it might seem like LIS people are advocating for KM in libraries and other information settings, the authors find that despite the synergies, KM is yet to find a broader place within other LIS concerns. Originality/value Research published during the past two decades has frequently discussed how KM is important for libraries and for LIS. However, the authors do not know the extent to which KM forms a part of LIS research.
