Abstract:
Journal of Entrepreneurship (the JoE), is published bi-annually by Sage Publications (Copyright: Entrepreneurship Development Institute of India). Since 1992 the JoE has been playing a vital role in dissemination of entrepreneurship related information all over the world. The JoE has 25 Volumes (50 issues) published between 1992 and 2016 (i.e. Volume 1 Number 1 to Volume 25 Number 2). This paper intends to bring out the results of a Citation Analysis study carried out on the articles of the issues of the JoE from Volume 21 to 25 i.e. 2012-16. A total 2685 citations appended to 55 articles published during 2012-2016. The analysis includes the bibliographic forms of the cited documents, authorship pattern, language, journals list, etc. The study is found to be useful to manage the information resources and services not only in the field of Entrepreneurship but also for Library and Information Centres. The finding reveals that more than 70% of the citations were from journals and a majority of the articles are contributed by two authors, i.e. 40.08%. Journal of Business Venturing is cited the most (7.62%) and the selfcitation percentage for JoE is 2.70%.
