Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’deki Bilgi ve Belge Yönetimi (BBY) araştırmacılarının interdisipliner yayın örüntüleri incelenerek, akademik yayın eğilimlerinin alandaki küresel eğilimlerle uyumlu olup olmadığı belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Veri odaklı ve tekrarlanabilir bir araştırma metodolojisi benimsenmiştir. Türkiye’deki 13 aktif üniversiteden 100 BBY araştırmacısının dergi makaleleri YÖK Akademik veri tabanından derlenmiştir. Ayrıca yayınlar, TR Dizin veri tabanından elde edilen ilgili dergiler kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Anlamsal ilişkileri belirlemek için Word2Vec, görselleştirme için UMAP ve araştırmacıların interdisipliner eğilimlerini niceliksel olarak ifade etmek için Dönme Yarıçapı (ROG) hesaplanmıştır. Demografik değişkenlere dayalı farklılıkları değerlendirmek için t-testleri ve ANOVA uygulanmıştır. Bulgular, Türkiye’deki BBY araştırmacılarının ortalama ROG değerinin 7,23 olduğunu ve interdisipliner sınırları aşma yönünde genel bir eğilim olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Akademik unvan, cinsiyet veya kuruma dayalı olarak interdisipliner eğilimlerde anlamlı bir fark bulunamamıştır. Çalışma, BBY alanının disiplinler arası doğasının anlaşılmasını derinleştirerek, gelişmiş veri analizi yöntemleri aracılığıyla metodolojik yenilikler sunar ve benzersiz bir veri seti oluşturarak literatüre katkıda bulunmaktadır. Gelecekteki araştırmalar, daha kapsamlı veri setleri kullanarak ve uluslararası karşılaştırmalı analizler yürüterek BBY alanındaki interdisipliner eğilimleri araştırılması önerilmektedir.
