bibliometric methods

[Stephen J. Bensman]

If you have access to them, the best way  to obtain an overview of the 
field is probably to peruse the back volumes of the Annual Review for 
Information and Technology.  Over the years there have appeared a number 
of good articles surveying information science as a whole and special 
subfields of it.  You can start finding what has been done by going to the 
following web site ant looking at what has been done since 2002.  

http://www.asis.org/Publications/ARIST/volumes.php

I am sure that by doing this you will come up with a number of articles 
covering areas of interest to you.
