To analyze and summarize the changes in research themes and overall development trends in the field of Library and Information Science by using citation analysis methods to conduct statistical and visual analysis of the documents related to the field since 1900.Web of Science (WOS) database was selected to search the literature in the field of LIS from 1900 to 2022, and the literature was divided into four time periods. To draw the corresponding visualization maps, the visual software, VOSviewer, was used to mainly carry out co-citation in three parts, cited documents, cited author and cited source, and then conduct keyword co-occurrence and co-authorship which united by country in each time period.
