Abstract

A citation analysis of dissertations accepted in the Department of Chemistry at The Ohio State University between 1996-2000 was performed as a way to determine material use. The 30 dissertations studied generated a total of 3,704 citations. Types of materials cited, currency of literature, and dissertation topics were all analyzed. The current results corroborate past research by other authors. Journal articles were cited more frequently than monographs: 85.8% of the citations were journal articles and 8.4% of the citations were monographs. The results of this study may be used to assist OSU and other universities in chemistry collection development.
