The 661 digital literacy articles were gathered and indexed by Web of Science. The study found that the degree of author collaboration was 0.62 or 62%, indicating that more than a half of 661 articles were multi-authored papers. In addition, America Continents have proportionally contributed in discussing about digital literacy topic. It was then followed by European countries, Australia/Oceania, Asia, and Africa respectively.
