Abstract
A sample of citations made in 1965 United Kingdom social science literature has been analysed according to subject, bibliographic form, country of origin, language, and date, and comparisons made with citations from science and technology literature. The relative sizes of the outputs of and demands for literature in these fields are estimated, and the subject distribution of citations within social science. The interrelations between source and cited subject are discussed. Use as indicated by citation is compared with use measured by loan demand on the National Lending Library.Keywords
