\begin{abstract}
\normalsize{
A study was carried out to characterise papers published in the books of proceedings of conferences of the Nigerian Society for Animal Production (NSAP) over a period of ten years (1998--2007). Data obtained were analysed using descriptive statistics. The results of the study showed that a total of 1503 papers were published during the period reviewed with 1998 book of proceedings taking the lead in number of papers published (327). Based on content, scientific research took the lead (1143 articles) while review papers had the lowest number of publication (30 articles). Articles on monogastric nutrition and management constituted the bulk of publications reviewed (288 articles) while those on wildlife management and production had the least publication (3 articles). Most studied type of animal was monogastric animals (575 papers) followed by ruminants (431 papers) and microlivestock (272 papers). In descending order, the species studied were ranked as poultry (469 papers) $>$ rabbit (187 papers) $>$ cattle (132 papers) $>$ goats (144 papers) while crickets, clams, giant rat, bee, guinea pig, donkeys and monkey were the least studied species with a paper each. In conclusion, most papers published in NSAP proceedings between 1998 and 2007 were scientific research in content and monogastric nutrition and management received the greatest attention from scientists; thus making it the most studied specialty. It is, therefore, recommended that specialties like animal biotechnology, animal production systems, animal waste management, and wildlife management and production should be encouraged to grow by emphasising them in our curricula and research works.}
