AbstractThis research was conducted to measure the citation errors in the research articles published in the Libres: Library and Information Science Research e-Journal, volume 26, issue 2, December, 2016. Sixty two journal citations were verified in details by classifying them into seven elements, viz. Author(s) Name, Article Title, Journal Name, Year, Volume No., Issue No., and Pages (both first and last page) and they were matched with the original articles. Non-journal citations were excluded from the study. Simple percentage analysis was employed by using percentage and frequency. Findings reveal that 63% (39) citations in Libres were inaccurate, while only 37% (23) citations were accurate. In 62 citations, a total of 50 errors were detected, out of which 18 were minor and 32 were major. A healthy mechanism is needed to maintain the reference accuracy as well as quality of the scholarly articles published in the Libres journal.
