The problem that arises in this research stems from the lack of research indicators based on national production to represent the current model of science in the field of information science produced in Brazil and represented in journals. The objective is to generate indicators of scientific output and citation from journals published in Brazil in the area of information science, using as source the Database of Scientific Journals in Information Science (Brapci). More specifically: to generate indicators of writers, topics and journals, and indicators of citations received, granted and self-citation; indices derived from citation, such as the impact factor, immediate impact, index h, half-life and obsolescence of literature; and compare indicators produced on bases of national and international data. It is a descriptive and methodological study that uses 1053 articles as corpus analysis published, ranging between 2012 and 2013. The collection of articles references consolidated a database of citations with approximately 27,000 references, of which 30% are from. The results of processed data were clustered to create the production's indicators and citation's indicators. The results highlight the growth of the area of Information Science, with a rate of 14.6% per year on average, which makes the production of articles to double every five years. The most productive authors and indicators of scientific collaboration were identified. Based on citations Impact Factors and h-index of periodicals were calculated. The values were compared with databases in order to try to describe the differences and accidents. It was not identified a direct relationship between the most productive and most cited authors, it was observed that a large number of authors, publishing a single article. Of citation indicators generated, demonstrated in compatibility with the bases, but there was no equality in the position of the most cited, concluding that depend...
