This bibliometric study is based on the analysis of 140 papers published in the last five volumes of the Granthalaya Vigyan during the period 2016 to 2020. Granthalaya Vigyan is supposed to be the only long surviving Hindi journal in Library & Information Science. The study discusses about the year- and volume-wise number of articles, authorship pattern, most productive authors of the journal, state-wise contribution of the articles, average length of the articles, types of sources used, and the number of references per article. Besides, the subject fields of the articles published in the last five years are also analysed to understand the trends of the research being published in the journal.
