Abstract

Abstract
The present paper attempts to analyze quantitatively the growth of research output in Vidyasagar University in terms of publication output as reflected in web of science database over the years 1989 to 2014. The data was collected from the web of science database. The analysis highlights yearly output of research publications, publishing trend, authorship pattern, funding agencies, collaborating organizations, collaborating countries, most productive authors of the University, most preferred journals for publication, citation profile of the contributed papers and the top cited papers and authors of the University. It is observed that the analyzed results tally well with Bradford’s distribution for bibliographic scattering and Lotka’s law of author productivity.
