The present study is a replication of the paper written by Robert Hayes in 1983. Both studies employ the "Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI)" to obtain indications of library and information science publishing and citation activity. The present study extends the examination of publishing and citation for the period 1981-92, although it includes some differences from Hayes's study. For instance, while Hayes examined only associate and full professors, all ranks are included here. This project examines, as did the Hayes paper, both individual productivity (as defined by numbers of papers published and indexed in "SSCI" and numbers of citations received) and productivity by school. The rankings are presented and per capita publications and citations are calculated. Comparison within the twelve-year period and with the Hayes paper are offered in the text wherever possible.
