Abstract
Abstract The purpose of the study is to analyze the library websites of Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) through webometric indicators including URL analysis, Web Impact Factor (WIF) calculation, link pattern analysis as well as file formats analysis. The survey was conducted for all IITs library websites for three rounds having the gap of fifteen days in each round. Search engine “Google” has been found suitable for the survey due to its capability to support webometrics search expressions. Very low WIF has been found for all the IITs library websites. Linking pattern amongst IITs library websites is also found very poor. The study is oriented mainly to webometric analysis of library websites. The problems and solutions have been suggested for the increase of web presence of IITs library websites. Keywords: Link analysis, Web impact factor, URL analysis, Link pattern, Top level domain
