Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to visualize the trend topics in the research area of library and information science (LIS) in India during 1989–2021. Design/methodology/approach The data was extracted from the Web of Science core collection database (WoSCC) database from 1989 to 2021. For creating the network visualization maps from the data, freely available softwares, VOSviewer (VV) and Biblioshiny (a Web-interface for bibliometrix), were used. Findings Results support the prediction that in the future, Indian LIS research will focus on areas such as deep learning, machine learning, artificial intelligence and block chain technology. Among the most prolific authors Satija, M.P (Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar) and Prathap, G (APJ Abdul Kalam Technology University) secured top positions in LIS research. Scientometric ranked the top journal or the core journal after applying Bradford law. Originality/value The visualization of trend topics in LIS research from 1989 to 2021, 32 years of time span, is the first of its kind.
