面對資訊科技快速演進與學術文獻激增的挑戰，如何系統掌握數
位圖書館領域的發展脈絡，成為圖書資訊學的重要課題。為補足現有
研究多聚焦於系統應用與使用者行為、較少整體掌握學術演進趨勢之
限制，本研究結合主路徑分析與科學圖譜技術，建構一套描繪知識擴
散與主題演化的整合性分析框架，並引入資源動態諧和理論進行理論
詮釋，以揭示數位圖書館研究背後的資源整合與能力發展機制。
本研究首先以 Scopus 資料庫進行潛在狄利克雷分配（LDA）主
題模型分析，確立「數位圖書館」為具代表性主題後，進一步以
Web of Science 引用資料進行分析。主路徑分析部分採用 Pajek 軟體
建構逐步、總體、關鍵延伸總體與關鍵延伸逐步四種主路徑，辨識從
1995年至2024年間之核心發展節點與知識擴散脈絡。科學圖譜部分
則運用 SciMAT 工具進行戰略圖與主題演化圖分析，揭示研究主題
自「數位圖書館」逐漸擴散至「使用者研究」、「資訊系統」、「數
位人文」、「學術圖書館」等多元議題，呈現技術導向與實務應用並
重之趨勢。
進一步結合資源動態諧和理論進行分析，發現不同時期的研究重
點呈現明確差異：初始萌芽期（1995-2004）著重數位圖書館的基本
概念與系統建置；快速成長期（2005-2009）聚焦於使用者導向設計
與服務回饋；趨緩調整期（2010-2014）著重互動強化與系統評估；
相對低谷期（2015-2019）展現理論深化與策略轉型；再度興起期
（2020-2024）則強調多元技術整合、行動應用與全球視角的資源協
調策略。此一趨勢展現出數位圖書館知識貢獻與資源整合之同步演進
歷程。
本研究不僅呈現數位圖書館發展脈絡與主題擴展趨勢，亦透過理
論觀點補足文獻計量分析之詮釋力，所建構之分析架構具有實證價
值，能為後續學術研究與圖書館資源治理策略提供具體參考。

Facing the challenges of rapid technological advancement and the surge
in academic publications, systematically understanding the development
trajectory of digital libraries has become a crucial issue in library and
information science. To address the limitation of existing studies that
primarily focus on system applications and user behavior while lacking a
comprehensive grasp of academic evolution, this study integrates main path
analysis with science mapping techniques to construct an analytical
framework that depicts knowledge diffusion and thematic evolution. In
addition, resource orchestration theory is applied to provide theoretical
insights, revealing the underlying mechanisms of resource structuring and
capability development in digital libraries research.
This study first applies Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic
modeling on the Scopus database to confirm “digital libraries” as a
representative theme, followed by citation data analysis from Web of Science.
For main path analysis, Pajek software is used to construct four types of main
paths: local, global, global key-route, and local key-route, identifying the core
developmental nodes and knowledge diffusion trajectories between 1995 and
2024. In the science mapping analysis, the SciMAT tool is employed to
generate strategic diagrams and thematic evolution maps, showing how
research topics have expanded from “digital libraries” to include diversified
themes such as “user studies,” “information systems,” “digital humanities,”
and “academic libraries,” reflecting a trend that balances technological
orientation with practical applications.
Through the integration of resource orchestration theory, the analysis
reveals distinct research emphases across different periods. The initial
emerging stage (1995-2004) focused on fundamental concepts and system
construction. The rapid growth stage (2005-2009) concentrated on useroriented design and service feedback. The adjustment stage (2010-2014)
shifted attention to integrated frameworks of information systems and library
practices with an emphasis on information quality. The relative decline stage
(2015-2019) demonstrated theoretical deepening and strategic transformation.
The re-emerging stage (2020-2024) highlighted multi-technology integration,
mobile applications, and globally oriented resource coordination strategies.
This progression illustrates how knowledge contributions and resource
integration have evolved together within the field of digital libraries.
Overall, this study clarifies the developmental context and thematic
expansion of digital libraries research and enhances the interpretive power of
bibliometric analysis through a theoretical perspective. The proposed
analytical framework provides empirical value and serves as a concrete
reference for future academic research and library resource governance
strategies.
