The paper is based on analyses of 787 papers by 2862 authors collected in the Journal of Advances in Geosciences publications from DOAJ. This study targets the authorship pattern and applicability of Lotka’s Law by counting the number of publications by each author, also applies the Chi-square test to test the hypothesis and finds the law still applicable to this research.
这篇论文是基于对DOAJ出版的《地球科学进展杂志》(Journal of Advances in Geosciences)上2862名作者的787篇论文的分析。本研究通过统计每位作者发表文章的数量来确定Lotka定律的作者模式和适用性，并采用卡方检验对假设进行检验，发现Lotka定律仍然适用于本研究。

The present study has examined mobile edge computing global research output, as indexed in Scopus database during 2001-18 on a series of Bibliometrics measures, such as publications growth rate, global publications share, citation impact, the share of international collaborative papers, distribution of publications by broad subjects. In addition, the study discusses the citation profile of top organizations and authors in fog computing, and the preferred media for research communication and characteristics of highly cited papers. The global research output (2716 papers) registered 42.48% annual growth rate and averaged to 6.77 citations impact per paper in the subject during the period. 80 countries participated in mobile edge computing research, of which the top 10 countries accounted for 89.51% global publication share and more than 100% of global citation share during 2001-18. China and USA tops the list of top 10 most productive countries in mobile edge computing research with 26.69% and 20.840% global publication share, followed by U.K. (7.29% share), Italy and Canada (6.44% and 6.11%), France (5.01%) and other 4 countries (from 3.94% to 4.86%) during 2001-18. USA tops the list (15.0 and 2.22), followed by Italy (10.73 and 1.59), Canada (9.59 and 1.42), Germany (8.89 and 1.31), U.K. (7.86 and 1.16), etc. in terms of citation impact per paper and relative citation index. 519 organizations and 561 authors participated in global mobile edge computing research, of which the top 15 organizations and authors contributed 21.80% and 8.21% global publication share and 22.54% and 9.71% global citations share during 2001-18. The world contributed 49.47% share of output in mobile edge computing research in top 15 most productive journals, and 28 of its papers have been rated as highly cited papers each with 101 to 844 citations per paper, averaging 222.61 citations per paper.

Present paper deals with the status of libraries as information sources, its diminishing visits and possible constraints which generates such situations. Literature search method has been applied to derive some common conclusions and variations. It is found that libraries are important till yet for the users of primary information. Its visits are found significantly decreasing except academic libraries. Libraries are less used than homes and working places for accessing the information. Search engines are found constricting the use of libraries. The study is purely based on literature search and tries to generalize the findings of studies in different prospects and therefore, it is important for sketching common trends in library use.

The study investigates the scholarly use of social networking tools and services by the doctoral students at the University of Kerala. Structured questionnaires were used to collect data from a population of 649 full-time doctoral students from different departments of the university. The analysis revealed that most of the researchers were daily users of the internet for 'research purposes' and 'email' is the most preferred social networking services preferred by them. Statistical analysis shows that the majority of the social networking tools and services have no significant difference with the gender of researchers except in the use of blogging service. It was also revealed that there is a significant difference in the use of social networking tools and services by the researchers with respect to their faculty. The major obstacles faced by research scholars are 'overload of information' the study provides useful insight to promote the use of social networking tools and services among the research scholars in the University of Kerala.

This paper examined mixed reality research published during 1994-17, on a series of bibliometric measures including growth rate, global share, citation impact, top countries, organizations and authors, preferred media of research communication and bibliographic characteristics of high cited papers. The study finds that mixed reality research registered faster (35.49%) growth, low citation impact averaged to (6.93) citations per paper, contributed too low share (0.03%) of its total research output in 24 years as highly cited papers. The USA, Japan, and Germany are seen as the world leaders in the subject, each had contributed at least 11% global publications share in 24 years. The mixed reality research is widely scattered across 68 countries with top most productive organizations and authors accounting for modest (23.35% and 16.56%) global publications share and modest (29.53% and 24.37%) global citation share respectively during the period.

The use of various social media tools in libraries is not a new topic and is in vogue for more than a decade now. Academic libraries around the globe are widely using social media tools to reach to their users and promote their products and services. The present study was carried out to determine the use of Social Media tools used for promoting the library resources and services in the academic libraries in Northern India. The library websites were analyzed for identifying social media tools being used. The study reveals that the majority of the academic libraries do not use any Social Media tool. However, their respective parent organizations use a few Social Media tools like Facebook, Twitter, Ask a Librarian and RSS feeds. The study further reveals that Email service is being used by many libraries followed by YouTube and Blog services.
在图书馆中使用各种社交媒体工具并不是一个新话题，而且已经流行了十多年。全球各地的学术图书馆都在广泛使用社交媒体工具来接触用户并推广其产品和服务。本研究旨在确定印度北部学术图书馆使用社交媒体工具来推广图书馆资源和服务的情况。对图书馆网站进行了分析，以确定正在使用的社交媒体工具。研究显示，大多数学术图书馆不使用任何社交媒体工具。然而，他们各自的母公司使用一些社交媒体工具，如Facebook、Twitter、Ask a Librarian和RSS订阅。该研究进一步显示，许多图书馆使用电子邮件服务，其次是YouTube和博客服务。
