Research productivity in Zoology, authorship pattern and nature of collaboration among the zoology scholars are studied by analyzing 236 theses and 719 thesis articles submitted by the scholars of the Zoology Department at the University of Burdwan in eleven subdivisions of Zoology during 1960-2000. The highest number of thesis submission was 64 and the highest number of article submission was 251 during the same time span 1986-1990. The highest number of theses (65) was submitted in Entomology followed by Parasitology (51), Fishery (29) and Cytology (28) respectively. The highest (48) number of theses were guided by Deb Kumar Chaudhuri. Authorship trend is towards multiauthored papers. The degree of collaboration is 0.51. The most prolific author was P.K. Choudhuri who topped the list with 80 papers during the period 1960-2000 followed by D.K. Choudhuri with 49 publications, S. Chakraborty with 49 publications, S.K. Ghosal with 45 publications, G.

"Indian Economic Review" published by Delhi School of Economics, University of Delhi has played a key role in the dissemination of fundamental and applied knowledge of Economics since 1952. This paper finds out the result of a bibliometric study covered in the issues of Indian Economic Review during 1998-2002. It examines authorship pattern, the degree of collaboration among authors and geographical distribution of the authors. It analyses 1653 citations appended to 68 research articles. The findings reveal that 43.25% citations were from books and 52.69% from journals. The authorship pattern study reveals that highest number of citations are from single author. The degree of collaboration in "Indian Economic Review" is 0.33 and it gradually decreases during the study period. Geographical distribution of the authors reveals that most of the contributors are from India with 48 authors (52.17%).Keywords

Dr. S.R. Ranganathan promulgated three planes of work in his classification theory Verbal plane is one of them. Every one have to accept the idea that natural language has as one of its primary attributes, a method of classification. The lexical meaning (obhidha), and the contextual meaning (according to denotative, implicational and suggestive potentiality obeying the compatibility, expectancy, and proximity) has helped to formulate the canons of verbal plane. Classification is closely linked with language and may be defined as a means by which the context of information sources is made accessible within established semantic contexts.Keywords
