Premium content as important as this may be,
content alone is not enough to drive discovery in
todays digital environment.
The ISI Web of Knowledge objective
Smart Discovery through provision of the
ultimate environment of discovery for the
user.
In adherence to this objective, the Strength of
the ISI Web of Knowledge lies not
only with the information it contains, but with
the way it works.

Web of Science Value to Your Institution or
Organization Impact -- access to the worlds
most influential journal literature.
  • Quality Evaluated, Selected Content
  • Every Web of Science journal is individually
    selected for influence within its respective
    discipline.
  • Our selection criteria is unbiased, impartial,
    time-tested.
  • We are Publisher-Neutral, evaluating research
    Commercial, Society, Open Access publications
    (over 200 indexed), etc.
  • Diversity Truly Multidisciplinary
  • All fields of research are included
  • 8,600 journals total
  • Sciences - over 6,100 titles.
  • Social sciences 1790 titles
  • Arts humanities 1125 titles

11
Web of Science Value to Your Institution or
Organization Impact -- access to the worlds
most influential journal literature.
  • Depth!
  • Science Citation Index Expanded 1900-1944
    backfiles added in early 2005, extending coverage
    of the Sciences to over 100 years!
  • Coverage back to 1956 in the Social Sciences, to
    1975 in the Arts Humanities.
  • Current information is of course critical.
    However, access to an archive
    of influential research is absolutely important.
    Impact of previous findings, even decades old,
    may be very significant.

12
Web of Science Value to Your Institution or
Organization Impact -- access to the worlds
most influential journal literature.
  • Data unique capabilities
  • Capture of Author Cited References for over 100
    years of data provides for methods of discovery
    that are simply not possible elsewhere. Navigate
    Cited References and Times Cited backward and
    forward in time.

For Related Records, Web of Science presents the
number of references shared by related papers a
proven method for gauging relevance.
19
Should a record seem especially relevant, Web
of Science allows the user to
quickly and easily create a Citation Alert. On a
weekly basis receive e-mail alerts containing
information on published papers that cite a
papers youve selected.

Web of Science Its Value to Your Institution or
Organization
  • Quality Diversity Depth Unique Data

Unmatched elsewhere -- No other resource offers
the level of selectivity and editorial quality
found within Web of Science journal content.
Unavailable elsewhere access to such a
diverse, deep, influential collection with
navigable cited reference links across 100 years.
Impact The Web of Science is a powerful
environment of discovery an authoritative
source of influential research.
21
Century of Science
  • Web of Science backfiles 1900-1944
  • It has taken a tremendous effort on the part of
    many to achieve this objective
  • Editorial Selection
  • Acquisitions
  • Data Capture Quality Control

22
Century of Science
  • Editorial Selection which journals to include
  • The Web of Science is a carefully developed and
    maintained collection of influential journal
    literature. The inclusion of every journal and
    serial, 8800 titles, is determined through
    rigorous evaluation.
  • Our selection of journals published 1900-1944
    involved
  • Examination of citation patterns within the
    existing coverage, 1945- present, to identify
    high-impact titles
  • Assessment of multidisciplinary representation
    within the core group of high-impact journals of
    this era

23
Century of Science
  • Over 850,000 articles from over 200 journals
    published 1900-1944
  • Web of Science records include Author Cited

frequently in the past four years than at any
time since its publication
33
Century of Science
Two Sandia National Laboratories researchers
recently reported
the new ease of access to information
internet and novel technologies has increased
the proportion of older publications cited,
despite a significant increase in the number of
papers published each year, suggesting that
scientists are relying less on their memory of
recently published papers and relying
increasingly on computer searches whose scope now
extends to the last 50 years or so.
Essentially, if researchers have access to
published research that is older in nature, the
intellectual content of this material will
be utilized.

Journal Citation Reports
39
Journal Citation Reports
  • Its Premise
  • Thomson-Scientific has for decades captured
    author cited references (bibliographies) from
    journal articles that are indexed in the Web of
    Science and Current Contents. Journals indexed in
    these two databases are rigorously evaluated and
    selected for their international influence.
  • This data is extremely important in revealing
    precisely which journals publish content that is
    subsequently cited most frequently within papers
    presented in the most prestigious journals in the
    world.

40
Journal Citation Reports
  • Therefore
  • - presents statistical data that provides a
    systematic, objective way to assist in the
    determination of the relative influence of
    journals within their respective subject
    disciplines.
  • - allows one to characterize journals uniquely,
    through citation patterns and relationships
  • - provides a unique method for examining
    relationships between journals and characterizing
    these journals through citation patterns.

41
Utilizing the JCR
  • Librarians to assist in the decision-making
    process with regard to journal collection
    development and maintenance.
  • Authors - to help with decisions on manuscript
    submission, identify most frequently cited
    publications within various disciplines.
  • Publishers - monitor the influence your journals
    and compare to competing journals.
  • Editors - assist in the tracking the influence of
    editorial policies over time.

Helping You Make the Right Decisions
  • What is Essential Science Indicators?
  • A tool that helps researchers, administrators,
    deans, and directors measure the productivity,
    influence, and impact of worldwide research
    activity in 22 fields of science and social
    science
  • What kinds of questions can ESI help me answer?
    Examples
  • Which universities produce the most highly-cited
    chemistry research? Is my university one of them,
    and if so, what is our ranking?
  • Which researchers have published the most
    influential work in immunology over the past 10
    years?
  • I published a paper in 1997 in the field of
    microbiology. It has been cited 45 times to date
    -- how does this compare to other papers
    published in this discipline?

82
Expert Analysis of High Quality Content

Benchmarks that give context to citation rankings
in each field - what is highly cited?
91
On average a Clinical Medicine paper published in
1999 has received 11.27 citations to date

What are the benefits of Essential Science
Indicators?
  • Rankings
  • Use researchers acknowledgements (citations) to
    quantify top research and indicate the influence
    of a scientist, institution, country, or journal
  • Find the productivity of an institution (number
    of papers) as well as its influence (number of
    citations)
  • Benchmark analysis
  • Use citation averages and percentiles to measure
    the relative influence of research papers against
    others in the same field
  • Editorial commentary
  • Gain a view of the scientific landscape through
    essays and articles offering context and
    background, not just numbers
