Abstract		Literature-based discovery (LBD) has undergone an evolution from being an emerging area to a mature research field. Hence it is necessary to summarize the literature and scrutinize general bibliographic characteristics and publication trends. This paper presents very basic scientometric review of LBD in the period 1986-2020. We identified a total of 237 publications on LBD in the Web of Science database. The Journal of Biomedical Informatics published the greatest amount of papers on LBD. The United States plays a leading role in LBD research. Thomas C. Rindflesch is the most productive co-author in the field of LBD. Drawing on these first insights, we aim to better understand the historical progress of LBD in the last 35 years and to be able to improve the publishing practices to contribute to the field in the future.
