Abstract
The study analyses online visibility of LIS Academia of central universities of North-East India
based on Google Scholar. The study included all the LIS faculties of five central universities. The
study found 559 research publications and 790 citations through Google Scholar. The study measured
the online visibility in terms of university-wise and faculty-wise publications and citations,
year-wise growth, authorship and collaboration pattern, co-authorship pattern and strength. The
study found that AUS and MZU are leading among other central universities in terms of various
scientometricaspects. Individual faculty performances have been instrumental to increase the growth
of the institutions in terms of publications and citations. Further faculty members have been suggested
