Türkçe Dergilerde Yayımlanan Makaleler Üzerine Bir İnceleme.

Abstract

There are currently more than 2,000 journals published in Turkey. Yet studies dealing with articles published in Turkish journals are scarce. This paper provides descriptive data on approximately 518,000 articles that appeared in 2,509 Turkish journals published between 1923 and 1999. Data comes from the Bibliography of Articles of the Republican Era 1923-1999 that was recently published by the Turkish National Library. Two thirds of the articles were on technology and social sciences. Articles in medicine constituted one fifth of all articles followed by economics (12.5%) and agriculture (6.1%). An overwhelming majority of articles were authored by a single author. One tenth of all articles appeared in ten journals. Findings can be used to develop library collection management policies for Turkish journals.
