This study sought to examine five theses from major journals concerning Korea's Library and Information Science, published from 1970 to 2018, so as to diagnose the current stage of International Research Cooperation in the field of Korea's Library and Information Science which researchers from two or more different nations jointly conducted. Furthermore, it determined the overall research trend so as to propose measures for activating and bolstering International Research Cooperation in the field of Korea's Library and Information Science. The findings of this study are expected to not only help further promote the International Research Cooperation in the category of Korea's Library and Information Science but also upgrade the overall quality of Korean researches in Library and Information Science.
