  9. Web of Science

  10. Easy to build a comprehensive search query Search for a specific time frame, or since a specific date

  11. Web of Science – What is a citation? 2004 2008 Times Cited 2003 2009 2000 Cited References 2000 Related Records 1998 1974 2008 1993 1999 2002 2000

  12. Citation Index - The Value Add • The language of research is constantly changing, as research progress concepts and terminology evolve. • Text based searching may miss critical information • Network linkages through citations facilitate the discovery of information across the boundaries of terminology LAV(Europe)HTLV-III (USA) HIV + many variants, “SIV” ??? 1983 1987 Present Future This particular article is highly cited and relevant, but does not contain the term “HIV” Therefore, this record cannot be found by searching for the text “HIV” but is easily found by using citations

  13. Metrics Science Citation IndexExpanded Social Sciences and Arts&Humanities Citation Index Journal-level data Researcher-level data Institution-level data Country/region-level data Field/discipline-level data Article-level data

  14. Citation Index – TheValue add Analyze results for detailed analysis such as collaborator identification Instant Citation Reports to easily evaluate research and identify trends Visualize citations using the Citation Map. Identify trends and track research pathways

  15. The separate data sources are selectable for specific search objectives Search lemmatization: Generate more comprehensive results. Searching for “tooth” will also retrieve alternates such as “teeth”

  16. Sort the results by “Times Cited” to identify the most influential research

  17. No limits to the number of search results. Refine results to efficiently narrow the search or run a detailed analysis of the entire result set

  18. Expandable abstracts for easy browsing

  19. The Analyze feature is a powerful analytical tool to identify trends and refine searches. Export of the analysis is simple …or any other field Identify the top countries for a particular research topic… And identify trends

  20. Citation Report provides an instant overview of the publication and citation history Link to the Citing Articles 28.6 Summary statistics and a breakdown per article are provided.

  21. All author names captured, including the full name when available Authors are linked to addresses making the affiliation clear All addresses are captured and addresses are standardized for easy searching

  22. Funding Acknowledgements are captured for easy identification of grant based research and commercial interests

  23. Link to external resources Link to other resources on theWeb of Knowledge platform

  24. Cited References Now includes the Times Cited count. Immediately identify the most important papers

  25. 2004 Times Cited 2008 2003 2009

  26. Citations from other sources are also included and a breakdown of the citing source is shown Better distinguish the value and relevance of the citing articles.

  30. Web of Science – Citation Map Roll over any node to see the details.

  31. Result save / export options include print, save, e-mail, marked list, alerting and RSS. Can also export automatically to EndNote and EndNote Web

  32. Permanently archive results. Organize results around your different projects etc. Share folders with colleagues, for example a research group or the reading list for a class • EndNote Web • Archiving Search Results • Sharing Information • Formatting Bibliographies • Writing efficiently

  33. Cite While You Write™ As you write an article – search your EndNote Web for items you wish to cite Automatically insert the complete bibliography of the paper and format to the style you require. Saves researchers and students a huge amount of time, enabling them to focus on writing the article

  34. EndNote Web is included as part of the Web of Knowledge platform, fully integrated with the Web of Science and ResearcherID

  35. ResearcherID is a freely available website where researchers can register themselves and list their publications. A useful tool to help researchers increase their global visibility and network with other researchers

  36. ResearcherID also includes basic citation metrics, available to the public

  37. ResearcherID also includes network analysis tools for co-author and citing articles.

  38. Thomson Reuters: Solutions for the entire research cycle ISI Web of Knowledge -- Web of Science & other searchable databases Search Discover Quality • Researcher ID • Integrated IR Write and Publish Manage & Promote Research Output Research Cycle • Endnote • EndNote Web • Scholar One Evaluate outcomes • Research analytics • InCites • Journal Citation Reports • Web services
