The article presents an example of application of the concept of system-innovation bibliometriс analysis and mapping of economic literature (SIBAMEL) (created by Department of Economics of the National Research University - Novosibirsk State University and the Institute of Economics and Industrial Engineering of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences). The application embraces the sphere of innovation. We use the EconLit as information base of the research. Four types of records were extracted and analyzed: 1) the records with the word «innovation» in the title of publication; 2) the records with the codes three fields of JEL classification O31, O32, and Q55. The mentioned fields include the word «innovation» in the names of the fields. We marked the publications with these features as «innovative». At the first stage of analysis, we have chosen the fields of JEL classification that did not include the «innovative» publication at the end of 2005 year. Then we considered publications in EconLit in 2006-2013 and found the new directions of economic research according to our definition of «innovative» publications for all intersections of the classifications fields. We present the ranking of new research directions and a few examples of new publications, the results of consideration of situations when a few new works appeared before the year 2005 and then there were the booms in publications at the same directions.
