Abstract
This article presents a bibliometric study about collaboration in the Iberoamerican journals indexed in the Journal Citation Report (JCR) within the category Information Science & Library Science. It has been found that the rate of authors per article is 2, 24, it has been calculated the collaborative index (CI) and the degree of collaboration (DC) from 2006 to 2014 and even though both CI and DC have increased, this rise has been small. Furthermore, international collaboration in the articles is minimum and almost all of it revolves around Spain.
