  ABSTRACT: Research on international publications, research hotspots, and disciplinary frontiers in the field of library and information science helps promote the development of the discipline and enhance academic discourse. This paper uses journal articles included in the top 20 journals ranked by impact factor in the 2023 Journal Citation Reports in the field of library and information science as data sources and employs Citespace to analyze the development status of the field over the past decade (2014-2023) from aspects such as research status, knowledge base, research hotspots, and frontier analysis. The study found that the number of publications in this field is steadily increasing, with the main core authors and prolific institutions primarily located in Europe and the United States. Current research focuses mainly on information services, knowledge management, and technological innovation, with research methods emphasizing the use of emerging technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence. With the continuous development of information technology, the research themes in the field of library and information science have shifted from traditional user experience-focused information service research to new knowledge service research.
