The study determined the impact of Collaboration and Information Sharing on the Publication Output of Academic Scientists and extent to which the Collaboration and information sharing entails sharing knowledge and ideas and working as a team to achieve a common goal.

Descriptive survey research design was adopted for the study and self-designed questionnaire was used. The target population for this study will one hundred and sixty-two (162) academic scientists of the three tertiary institutions under study. Three (3) objective were formulated to conduct the study. Three research question were raised and answered, Frequency counts and percentages were used in analyzing the data to answer the research question; results were presented in tables while inferential statistics of Pearson product moment Correlation (PPMC) was used to test the null hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. Using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version twenty (20). The finding revealed that majority of the respondent’s indication that the extent of collaboration was to a low extent among academic scientists in tertiary institutions in Adamawa State, Nigeria, equally It was also established that the respondents on extent of information sharing activities among academic scientists were to a total low extent among academic scientists in tertiary institutions in Adamawa State, Nigeria.
