Abstract

Information management is a fundamental field for Information Sciences, as it allows knowledge to be organized, retrieved and used efficiently in different contexts. In this context, it is relevant to analyze the impact of scientific journals on the construction and consolidation of disciplinary knowledge. However, there is a lack of systematic studies that examine the contribution of the International Journal of Information Management to the field of documentation from a bibliometric approach. Therefore, the present study aims to analyze the scientific production published in the International Journal of Information Management in the period 2014 - 2024. The research is classified as descriptive, longitudinal-retrospective, and uses the bibliometric method as the main analysis tool. The results show a sustained growth in the number of publications, with an increase in international collaboration between authors and institutions. Likewise, thematic trends focused on data management, artificial intelligence applied to information and digital transformation in organizational environments are identified. The International Journal of Information Management will promote lines of research in emerging areas of information management and strengthen collaboration between international and inter-institutional actors.
