Abstract

Scientometric profile is significant because it gives an insight into the research and development of a particular country, institution and scientist. Scientometrics points out the stronger and weaker areas of research and helps researchers to contribute more. The role of academic librarians in promoting R&D activities helps in contributing towards enriching the knowledge society. This study helps the librarians of Sri Lankan universities to improve the quality of their institution in terms of research productivity nationally and worldwide. In this study, by using Web of Science as database, the research outcomes of Sri Lankan universities were compared with each other. The result of this study shows the ranking of the studied universities and most prolific scientists in terms of scientometrics indicators.
