Abstract
The professional field of librarianship integrates both theoretical and practical domain knowledge.
It is a distinctive profession that deals with knowledge. The function and duty of each author on a
research project or paper is currently being defined in the field of research. With a sample of 1538
documents downloaded between the years of 2002 and 2022, the current study describes the topic
of librarianship in detail and reveals trends in authorship patterns and author's collaborative
research across all publications on the subject as represented in the Web of Science database. There
are 1.76 authors on average per article. The degree of collaboration (DC) in the study throughout
the course of the entire 21 years (2002-2022) is 0.39. Over the duration of the 21-year period,
single-author publications have outnumbered multi-author publications. According to the study,
group or team research is more appealing to librarianship scholars than solo inquiry.
