Abstract

purpose: This study aimed to explore the field of collaborative information seeking (CIS) researches and drawing the co-word map based on the articles indexed in Web of Science.
Methodology: The research has been done by quantitative method and scientometric indicators. All 125 Web of Science records were retrieved using the term “collaborative information seeking behavior”. VOSviewer was used to construct and visualize the network.
Findings: The research findings indicated that the articles were the main document type of the total CIS research production. The results of the SNA also showed that Information Research - an international electronic journal - was the top journal where most of the CIS researchers published their articles. Also, the results showed that the most popular terms among the researchers are etrieval, Seeking, Model and Searching Process.
Conclusion: It is an appropriate source to show the intellectual structure, academic foundation, knowledge domain, and social structure of the field to rank the most constructive scholars, institutions, and publications. So, it will provide a roadmap and support future guidance of research in this field of study.
