Abstract
Charting the characteristics of librarian authors offers insight into the field by defining and describing the research patterns of the profession. This study looks at the journal articles published by academic librarians practicing in Illinois. It finds that women are publishing close to their numbers in the profession, that more articles are being written collaboratively than in the past, and that women are more likely to collaborate than men. It also shows that librarians publish primarily in library/information science journals and that librarians at large universities are more likely to publish than librarians at small colleges.
