Abstract

The study presents the state of bibliographical research in the discipline of Hebrew printing during a 30-year period, ranging from the latter quarter of the twentieth century until the beginning of the third millennium (1976–2006). Through bibliographical parameters it characterizes the publications dealing with Hebrew printing, examines whether the published material exhibits laws and systematic regularities that are consistent with Bibliometrics, and describes directions in which the field has developed.
