Abstract

The characteristics of citation and centrality measures in citation networks can be identified using multiple linear regression analyses. In this study, we examine the relationships between bibliometric indices and centrality measures in an article-level co-citation network to determine whether the linear model is the best fitting model and to suggest the necessity of data transformation in the analysis. 703 highly cited articles in Physics published in 2004 were sampled, and four indicators were developed as variables in this study: citation counts, degree centrality, closeness centrality, and betweenness centrality in the co-citation network. As a result, the relationship pattern between citation counts and degree centrality in a co-citation network fits a non-linear rather than linear model. Also, the relationship between degree and closeness centrality measures, or that between degree and betweenness centrality measures, can be better explained by non-linear models than by a linear model. It may be controversial, however, to choose non-linear models as the best-fitting for the relationship between closeness and betweenness centrality measures, as this result implies that data transformation may be a necessary step for inferential statistics.

초록

본 연구는 우리나라 2개 국가도서관과 9개 지역대표도서관, 서울시립정독도서관을 대상으로 담당 사서들의 도서기호에 대한 인식 및 문제점을 조사하고 각 도서관에서 사용하고 있는 도서기호의 현황을 분석하여 도서기호에 대한 개선방안을 제시하였다. 도서기호의 가장 큰 문제점은 도서기호의 중복으로 인해 길어지는 도서기호의 길이로 나타났으며 도서기호 현황 분석을 통해 도서기호의 중복과 함께 직관성 부족이라는 문제점을 도출하였다. 이에 본 연구는 이용자 친화적이면서 간단하게 부여할 수 있는 저자명순과 연대순 방식을 조합한 새로운 도서기호법의 구성 요소를 제안하였다.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the current status of assigning book numbers and the perceptions of librarians who assign the book numbers at two National Libraries, nine Regional Central Libraries and Jeongdok Public Library in Korea. Based upon the analysis, a better method to assign book numbers for the libraries was suggested. The most serious problem was the length of the book numbers due to the duplication of book numbers and lack of intuitiveness. Therefore, this study suggested a user-oriented way of assigning book numbers based upon combining the name of the author and the year of the publication.
