Abstract

Draws attention to the vast potential of online information databases and to the many new possibilities which advanced search techniques offer those who want to explore databases. Looks at informetrics, an emerging subfield in information science, which is based on the combination of advanced information retrieval and quantitative studies of information flow. Describes 3 studies carried out at the Centre for Information studies at the Royal School of Library and Information Science in Copenhagen, Denmark, to illustrate the scope and nature of informetric analysis
