This article describes the names of scientific publication journals in the field of libraries and information, which are increasing in number, and the increasing activity of publishing scientific works that encourage librarians to develop writing habits. This study aims to examine the semantic side of the naming of library and information science journals in Indonesia. This study employs a qualitative descriptive semantic approach by using various multi-site names of library journals and information in the PTKIN environment. The focus of this paper lies in the uniqueness of naming libraries and information journals in the PTKIN environment. The results showed that the journal's name contains terms derived from Indonesian, local languages, and foreign languages. In addition, there is also the name of the journal, which is an abbreviation of letters that makes it easy to recognize. The names of libraries and information journals in the PTKIN environment tend to contain the meaning of university libraries in a general sense or things related to library materials.
