In this study that can be qualifies as a bibliometrics one, 80 articles, published in the special issues (2014, 2015 and 2017) of National Office Management and Secretarial (OMS) Congress in the Electronic Vocational School Journal, were investigated from the respect of the self-citation. The articles were handled in two sections as the synchronously self-citation and diachronously self-citation. The review related to diachronously self-citation was carried on via Google Scholar (on the 01.08.2018). The articles, beside the author self-citation, were examined from the respect of the congress self-citation. In the studies about the self-citation, it is seen that there are different types of the self-citation as author self-citation, journal self-citation, institution self-citation and country self-citation. However, the concept of the congress self-citation was used for the first time here and it adds a genuine value to the study.
