A Scientometric Portrait of Professor M. P. Satija ------------------------------------------------------

-------------- N. K. Swain

1. Introduction

To what follows the authors speaks about scientometric study of publications of Prof.

M.P. Satija. Prof. Satija, the name is nearly synonymous with GNDU (Guru Nanak Dev

University) among the LIS (Library and Information Science) professionals in India.

Prof. M. P. Satija, the blue-eyed teacher has taken the name of GNDU in general and LIS

profession in particular to such a height that only legends can do this. He is outstanding

among 3rd generation of LIS teachers after S. R. Ranganathan and Krishan Kumar by

virtue of his persuasive writings.

Here publications are analysed by year, domain, collaboration trend, citation pattern of

his writings, channels of communication used along with other important features of his

publication style. As Kademani, Kumbar and Surwase opine, the result indicate that

temporal variations of his productivity to be a role model for the younger generation to

follow, ( Kademani, Kumbar and Surwase 2008). Till the compilation of this study he has

348 publications to his credit in various key areas of library and information science.

The study is structurally different from other biographical or biobibliographical pattern as

it takes the readers to see the trend in writing patterns which has been calculated

scientifically. This type of study is normally made under the caption of bibliometric or

scientometric. So the author chooses to use the later one. There is a reason to believe in

studies of this nature. In normal course studies are conducted on the Nobel laureates,

founding fathers of specialised field of study, etc. Sometimes the credit and authenticity

lies in citing the materials written by those scholars.

The specialised writings of these scholars further associate them in specialised domains.

As in the concluding part of the studies this author remarks Prof. M. P. Satija as a

Ranganathan scholar. Further these types of studies are branded in a different caption, if

we have a cursory look into the literature. Some evidences are found biobibliometric

term was used first time by S. K. Sen and S. K.Gan (Sen and Gan). Further there are

numerous studies conducted by B.S. Kadamani, V.L.Kalyani, A Dhiman, M.M Angadi ,

B.K. Sen. These examples add authenticity to this study.

Many a times it is observed that these studies are carried out as a token of love for the

scholar chosen for study. As Sonwane and Vaishnav opine in one of their similar work

as a token of respect to the renowned information professional who is acclaimed as an

educationist par excellence, information technologists in the field of library and

information Science. (Sonwane and Vaisnav 2008 p.50). Endorsing the above view, the

author herewith shows a token of affection for a scholar who has devoted his entire life

for the concern of LIS profession.

Personal Account

Philosophers are of the opinion that biography of scholars should be read and taught as

learners get chance to learn and get motivated from it. Hence the author provides a brief

biography of Prof. M.P. Satija. As per the school certificate he was born on the 4th of May

1948 at Sangrur. Sangrur is a city a district town of the Indian state of Punjab. His parents

Smt. Rama Devi and Sri Ram Chandra migrated from Multan (now in Pakistan) When

enquired about his childhood and schooling days he honestly says, my father was a

lowly paid police man, but he was literate and always wanted quality in my life. He

encouraged me for schooling. He was strict with my schooling. He would hardly allow

me to take a casual leave from school. This childhood habit continued in adult official

life. The schooling of children was not a priority in a community struggling for

settlement and security of being uprooted. I was modestly good at studies and passed

higher secondary 1965 by standing first in the school and the city (Satija 2008).

Academic Achievements

40/62


Prof. Satija got education, especially schooling in that period in which hardly any schools

were there. He passed his senior

secondary in the year 1965.And graduated in the year 1970 from Punjabi University,

Patiala, at the age of 22 with mathematics, physics, and chemistry , the royal combination

in modern sense. Just after his studies he was engaged in some petty jobs for pocket

money and eventually landed at the LIS profession. To quote M. P. Satija in his words

by doing odd jobs intermittently (in between) in 1971, I passed B. Lib. I. Sc. from

Punjabi University, Patiala campus. And was awarded gold medal for standing first in the

University (Satija 2008). He was the first gold medalist in LIS from the same university.

Just after basic education of LIS he worked for a year before getting into Guru Nanak

Dev University as Library Assistant (LA) in the month of February 1972. And he stayed

here with GNDU for good. As the days passed on he developed his skill and professional

proficiency, which shifted him to community of the teachers as a lecturer in the year

1984. Six years after, in 1991 he was promoted as reader and joined as a professor after 8

years in the year 1999.The dates and the work place, GNDU shows that he never moved

out of GNDU Amritsar for his basic bread and butter. Though in 1998 he was selected as

Professor and Head, Department of Library Science of Sagar University (now Dr Hari

Singh Gaur University, Sagar) but he did not move there.

During his long career he met some good people in the profession and learnt many things

from there lives and writings. Answering to the authors query about Ranganathan, he

says, I never met Ranganathan, but was always impressed by his innovative monumental

contribution and his faith in the power of libraries (Satija 2008). Truly a reader can

endorse his words by looking statistically at the contribution of Prof. Satija on the area

Ranganathan studies. He wished he could meet Ranganathan and his obsession

diminished as Ranganathan passed away the year he joined the profession.

Among other writers whom he woos are Jese Hauk Shera, D.J. Foskett, Jack Mills, B.I.

Palmer and John P. Comaromi. Michael Comaromi developed his association with Prof.

Satija as a co-author in many weitings. In India the writings of Girija Kumar lured his

interest.

40/62


Among other professional activities, publications in learned journals, writing book

reviews, conducting seminars and workshops, giving extended lectures in India and

abroad are prominent. His writings especially on knowledge organisation and its sub-

fields e.g., classification, cataloguing, subject headings and indexing has great impact

factors which can be seen in some of the tables provided in this paper. Lauding his role

for the profession many scholars have varieties of high opinions. Due to space constraints

the author is unable to provide the exhaustive list. A sample representative observation of

Joseph Miller through email is worth citing, I have never had the pleasure of meeting

Professor Satija, but for many years we have had a regular and lively e-mail

correspondence. His work in the field in cataloging and classification has been

immensely valuable to the international cataloging community, and his special

involvement in subject analysis and his loving concern for the development of the Sears

List of Subject Headings has been of special importance to me. It is with sincere

gratitude that I congratulate Professor Satija on his retirement and salute his personal

contribution to the library profession and his continuation of the long history of

philosophical and innovative librarianship coming to us from India (Miller 2008).

Joseph Miller is the Vice-President, Cataloguing and General references, H. H. Wilson.

New York. His praise for the Indian LIS doyen is quoted in the section international

approbation of this essay.

Professional Career

The professional career of Prof is versatile, although his publications are more specialised

in knowledge organization. As a teacher he stamped the impression of a teacher par se.

He has produced a long list of 37 books published in India and abroad. With 123 papers

in scholarly journals along with extra efforts in producing a mammoth 158 book reviews,

drafted a couple of book chapters and other forms of writings.

The major corpus of his writings consists majorly journal writings and book reviews.

37 books on varieties of areas are also a good number, and show his expertise. The latest

40/62


book by him has been published by Scarecrow Press of U.S.A. With a single bent of

mind he concentrates on the knowledge organisation. There wont be any library

schools in India where Prof. Satijas book is not recommended either for colon

classification or for Sears List of Subject Headings. His journal writings are also

multifarious. Almost all the Indian journals list his writings in their issues as the author

tipped earlier that extra effort has been exhibited by showing the list of book reviews in

dozen of journals. In the succeeding tables, readers can look at the exhaustive list of

journals in which Prof. Satijas work has appeard. It is also observed that his writings on

popular issues of library use and reading habits are featured in local dailies.

If we dont discuss about his association with Indian library schools it would be

injustice to his laudable role for the teaching and research of LIS. Library Schools

especially in northern part of India are obliged to Prof. Satija either for extension lectures,

membership of board of studies, or for special lectures .To provide a brief account of the

series of library schools of Indian universities may be as follows; University of Jammu, J

& K, Punjab University, Chandigarh, Punjabi University, Pataiala, Kurukshetra

University, Kurukshetra, University of Delhi, Delhi , IGNOU, Delhi, University of

Rajasthan Jaipur, Mohanlal Sukhadia University, Udaipur, Dr. Ambedkar University,

Lucknow, Gorakhpur University, Gorakhpur, Jiwaji University, Gwalior, niversity of

Kashmir , Srinagar (J & K) , AMU Aligarh, H.S Gaur University, Sagar, NEHU ,

Shillong etc. His association with foreign universities highlights his network and

expertise in the teaching profession. To count a few he was available with 44th FID

conference held at Helsinki, Finland , 5th International ISKO conference held in France

August 15-29, 1998. College of Librarianship, Wales, Aberystwyth, July 22- August 23,

1984. He also served as visiting fellow at Maastricht McLuhan University, the

Netherlands, July 21 Oct 20 1999.This list provided above are a selected few as it

exhaustively runs into hundreds in number including visiting professor, University of

Kelaniya, Sri Lanka in 2005.

He has also been nominated for various organisations, journals and forums, to list

a few; nominated member of Advisory Board, UDC consortium, the Hague, Editorial

Board Punjab University, Lahore (Pakistan). Journal of ICT and Human Development

40/62


(USA), Library Herald, Delhi. He is also trustee of Prof. Kaula Endowment in Lib & Inf

Sc. (H.Q Tenali, Andhra Pradesh). He also served as a consultant for the national

bibliography project for the National Library of Sri Lanka.

5. International Admiration

Prof. M. P. Satijas works has earned him international reputation, especially in

the field of knowledge organisation. I received many letters from international LIS

communities praising critically Satijas work. In India also he has great number of fans

mostly teachers as they come often across Satijas book while lecturing the students .I

strongly feel to site some selected Indian and international praises for his work and few

studies about the ranking of authors on the basis of his writings.

In a letter to Prof. Satija, Allen Kent the editor Encyclopedia of Library and

Information Science, Pennsylvania, USA acknowledged on the receipt of his article

Book Number and Call Number as , Masterful treatise, and I am very pleased to have

it in the Encyclopedia. (Kent 1987). On many occasion he was invited to deliver lectures

on special occasion of international associations which a few Indians have avail this

opportunities. Dorothy McGarry, chairman of IFLA section on classification and

indexing invited Prof Satija to present a paper during the IFLA conference, New Delhi in

the year 1992. I would like to present the few lines of excerpts, you are highly

recommended to us for this topic because of our reputation for having excellent

knowledge of the subject, and because members of the standing committee have read

your writings and been impressed by them. I hope that you agree to present a paper in

New Delhi. (McGarry 1991). In some occasion the readers may find the translations of

some of Satijas work for non-native English speaking European countries. His works are

a-must-useful for LIS schools. A formal invitation was sent by Aida Slavic, School of

Library and Information Studies, University College London, for Satijas consent of

translating his work into Russian language. The letter reads as, I had the pleasure to read

your excellent and through review of the UDC, pocket edition in the last issue of

knowledge organisation. In my country (Croatia) UDC is the most common system and

there is a great deal of interest in writings on this subject. I wonder if it would be possible

for you to grant us permission to translate and publish your review in the above

40/62


mentioned special issue of he journal (Croatian Library Association Journal devoted to

indexing and classification) (Slavic 2001). He was pleased and consented the

permission. By doing this he joined in the group of non-Croatian stalwarts. Others non-

Croatian authors in this issue will be I.C McIlwaine, V. Broughton, D. Bawder, G.

Riesthuis and Ines Cordeiro (Slavic 2001). In another occasion I happy to see an

appreciation letter by Birger Hjrland. Birger Hjrland is the one among a few in the

world whose ontological writings imbibed into LIS concepts have helped many

researchers to feel go-ahead with their work. In the words of Hjrland, I can see now,

that you dont have deep theoretical involvements with classification and philosophy, and

I would be very pleased to have my book reviewed in KO or else where (e. g., Libri) by

you (Hjrland 1999).

Prof. Satija sent his work on sears list of subjects heading to Josheph Miller, who

then the editor of sears list on subject Headings, H.W Wilson Company, New York. After

reading critically Miller replied, I find your workbook for sears excellent throughout,

and I am very impressed with the fine scholarship behind it. I have found almost nothing

to take exception to. (Miller 1999). In the latter part this essay, the readers may find the

enormous research and studies conducted by Satija on S. R. Ranganathan. An area

which most scholars are virtually ignoring. But the author would like to show an

appreciation by an LIS heavyweight Eugene Garfield, Just a short note to tell you I

really enjoyed reading your article, Sources of Research on Ranganathan, which

appeared in the July 1987 issue of international library Review (Garfield 1987).

Ranking as an Author

In the year 1992, a study conducted by A.R. Sethi and Neena Kapoor about the

ranking of the LIS authors. To quote these scholars, the author index reveals that there

are 30 authors whose contributions number 20 or more during the period 1970-1990.

Among them 10 most prolific writers were: A Neelameghan, P.N Kaula, Gopinatha, I.N

Sengutpa, G. Bhattacharya, M.P. Satija, Krishnan Kumar (Sethi & Kapoor 1992). The

above data show the then study reveals Prof. Satija was ranked 7th in the fleet of

prominent writers. Rekha and Parameswarans study shows that in a bibliometric study

40/62


of ISKO Journal Knowledge Organisation (KO) for the period of 1988-1999, Satija was

ranked 11th as an author at the world level in which he was lone Indian among 14 most

prolific writers in the KO (Rekha and Parameswaran 2002) In this regard I would like to

provide a different study of LISA for the period of 1994-1998 conducted b K. G. Smitha

under the guidance of Prof M. Parameswaran at Calicut University. Satija was ranked

first among the Indian authors with 26 contributions followed by A. Neelameghan (17)

and M.A Gopinath (15) (Source ILA Newsletter Vol.16 (8) 2000 p.8).

The author would be happy if the readers would peep into the works and

acclamation of a fellow Indian library scientist.

Objectives of the Study

The objectives for this study are formulated as given below. These are generated from

numerous studies of the similar type e.g., Sen and Gan (1990), Lancaster (1991), Kalyane

(1994), Leydesdroff (1995), Kayane and Vidyasagar Rao (1995), Dodgso and Hinczc

h- index of Prof Satija

40/62


The h-index is an index that quantifies both the actual scientific productivity and the

apparent scientific impact of a scientist. The index is based on the set of the scientist's

most cited papers and the number of citations that they have received in other people's

publications. The index can also be applied to the productivity and impact of a group of

scientists, such as a department or university or country. The index was suggested by

Jorge E. Hirsch, a physicist at University of California, San Diego ( UCSD), as a tool for

determining theoretical physicists' relative quality and is sometimes called the Hirsch

index or Hirsch number. The h-index has yet to supplant older metrics. Jorge Hirsch

(2005a, 2005b) recently proposed a new research performance indicator that is designed

for application at the micro level. The Hirsch index, or h index, quantifies as a single-

number criterion the scientific output of a single researcher. Hirschs (2005b) index is an

original and simple new measure incorporating both quantity and visibility of

publications (van Raan 2006).

The Index is based on the distribution of citations received by a given scholars total

publications. Hirsch writes:

A scientist has index ph if his/her papers have at least h citations each and the other (

hN p ) papers have at most h citations each.

So a researcher with an index of h has published h papers with at least h citations each.

SO h-index is the result of the balance between the number of publications and the

number of citations per publication. The index is designed to improve upon simpler

measures such as the total number of citations or publications, to distinguish truly

influential scientists from those who simply publish many papers. The index is also not

affected by single papers that have many citations. The index works properly only for

comparing scientists working in the same field; citation convention differs widely among

different fields (Kademani, Kumbar, and Surwase 2008 p. 46).

Conclusion and Suggestions

Study of Prof. M.P. Satijas publication productivity 31 years (1978-2008) shows that

during which he has published 348 papers including journal articles book reviews books

and book chapters. It indicates his publication productivity increased after his 50

percentile age i.e., from 1993 onwards. There are 25 collaborators. His papers are

scattered in 26 scholarly journals, which have received 30 citations as Google scholar

database hints the quality and versatility of the papers. His enormous contribution on

Ranganathan studies is enough to say that he is a Ranganathan Scholar.

Acknowledgement

I sincerely acknowledge the assistance rendered by my wife Tamishra Swain who could

helped me in editing the write up; equally thankful I am to Prof. Jagtar Singh to publish

such a long paper and thanks are due for Prof M P Satija for consenting and making

available the needed the material for this study.
