Abstract

Libraries recognize the necessity to continuously evaluate how well the collection supports the mission, goals, and priorities of the parent institution. This paper shares the results of the local citation analysis on engineering faculty research output from 2015 to 2019 conducted at De La Salle University. Scopus was used to harvest the documents published by the faculty as well as the list of all cited references in those records. The study aims to investigate how the engineering faculty are using publications, especially journals, for their research and deter­ mine how successful the collection is in supporting the research needs of the faculty. Findings will provide useful evidence for strategic planning in general and for making collection man­agement decisions in particular.
