ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the situation of recent ten-year publications in Chinese hospital libraries, providing advice for the development and innovation of hospital libraries and the help to improvement of scientific research management.Methods:Publications in databases including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP were retrieved when " hospital library" is included as a key topic. The general information of the enrolled publications was statistically described. With respect to the key words with high frequency, co-word analysis and cluster analysis were performed to explore the research hotspots in hospital libraries.Results:The number of publications in Chinese hospital libraries shows an overall downward trend. By contrast, the total numbers of publications in hospital libraries from Shandong and Guangzhou rank top. In terms of the ratio of total number of publications to total number of hospitals, Liaoning and Chongqing rank top. The periodicals of interest are mainly grouped into three categories including intelligence information, library and hospital management; however, the cooperation with clinical or other departments should be strengthened. Discipline and personalized service, digital library and library innovation are the dominating research hotspots in hospital libraries from China. Studies of hospital library mainly focused on clinical and scientific research services, but paid less attention to the support to hospital scientific research management.Conclusions:The service of hospital library is involved in the whole process of scientific research management. To improve the role of hospital library in scientific management, embedded service is recommended to be applied into the whole process of hospital scientific research management; construction of institutional repository for scientific research management and transformation of the role of hospital library are also highly recommended.
