In this study, we analyzed the book-borrowing network that we constructed from the database of the libraries of Ardahan University by using complex network analysis techniques. After the construction of the bipartite reader-book relationship network, we constructed reader-reader and book-book networks via one-mode projection. We performed an exploratory complex network analysis on these networks using Cytoscape and Gephi tools. We found that both networks revealed scale-free and small-world network properties like most real-world networks from diverse origins and of diverse sizes. In addition, we identified the most central books in the book-book network using several centrality measures. We also performed community analysis and identified the communities embedded in the networks visually.

Bu çalışmada, karmaşık ağ analizi teknikleri kullanarak, Ardahan Üniversitesi kütüphanelerinin veritabanından oluşturduğumuz kitap ödünç alma ağını analiz ettik. İki parçalı okuyucu-kitap ilişkisi ağını oluşturduktan sonra, tek modlu projeksiyon ile okuyucu-okuyucu ve kitap-kitap ağlarını oluşturduk. Cytoscape ve Gephi araçlarını kullanarak, bu ağlar üzerinde keşif türünden bir karmaşık ağ analizi gerçekleştirdik. Farklı kökenlerden ve farklı büyüklüklerde çoğu gerçek-hayat ağı gibi, her iki ağın ölçekten-bağımsız ve küçük-dünya ağı özellikleri sergilediğini gösterdik. Ek olarak, çeşitli merkezilik ölçütleri kullanarak, kitap-kitap ağındaki en merkezi kitapları tespit ettik. Ayrıca, topluluk analizi gerçekleştirdik ve ağda yerleşik toplulukları görsel olarak tespit ettik.
