The data was collected from Google Scholar using Publish or Perish software. Furthermore, the study was considered only those faculties which were listed in the university website. The Study found the 32 LIS faculty and authors contributed 967 papers from 1980-2017. Out of 967 publications, majority of 452 publications found in the form of journal articles, followed 325 conference papers and 112 book chapters. It was further noticed that LIS faculty also published 29 Books and 13 theses and 1 abstract and presentation. Furthermore, the study found that most of the papers were published in conference in PLANNER 54 publications and CALIBER 44 publications and IASLIC Conference 17 publications. The study recommendation that, LIS faculties should concentrate on qualities of papers as 93% publications had no citations. During this study, it was found that very few faculties used Google Scholar IDs. It is recommendate that, to use Google Scholar, so that actual impact of research publications can be analyzed.
