International Coverage in the Web of Science Thomson Reuters extends the power of its Journal Selection Process by focusing on the world’s best Regional Journals Web of Science users are more international than ever before Research is more international than ever before and the importance of research from developing nations is increasing Asia Eastern Europe Middle East Latin America The global landscape is changing. It is changing in 2 ways, we now have more global customers than ever before and this is continuing to expand with many developing economies now becoming our strong customers. But of course at the same time we have seen an increase in research spending and therefore research output from developing economies. Geographically, Asia (exc Japan), Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Latin America all growing fast. Share of published papers

Regional Expansion - Selection Philosophy We are still using the same stringent policy that we have always used. We have not weakened our selection policy in anyway. However, we have listened to our customers and have slightly modified our approach with regards to regional journals to reflect the increasing importance of regional coverage Journals with a regional focus are generally cited by their own community which by nature is small Therefore the impact factors may not be as high as international journal, but the value of the content is high Other selection criteria must be adhered to Starting in late 2007 we have modified are journal selection philosophy to reflect this changing environment. It is important to state categorically that we have by no means weakened our selection criteria for academic journals. However, based on feedback from our customer we have changed the way we look at regional journals. Regional journals are those that are from geographic regions from outside of the established developed world of western Europe and the United States. A regional journal will cover a particular subject with a focus that represents that region. For example in the fields of Law and Economics there are regional legislation and economic policies that are only specific for that particular country or region, however the fundamentals of this research are of interested to global researchers. Another example is that of clinical medicine; The general population in a geographic region may have specific social demographics, diet or genetic makeup that result in different trends and results in clinical research. But this research results will have global importance to the research community. There are many other examples, such as desertification and its importance to research in environmental change Arts and Humanities with specific regional variations in art, architecture, religion etc. Because of the regional focus of these journals, they are most likely to be cited within their own geographic community, and because these geographic regions tend to be small the citation counts to these journals may be low. However the value of the content will be very high for researchers from that region, and still of academic value to the global research community. This means that the impact factor of regional journals may not be high, and this is one of the main factors why they have not been indexed previously in the Web of Science. We have always had a regional approach to our selection policy and we have aimed to provide even geographic distribution for all disciplines. What has changed with the new Regional Expansion is that we are now looking at journals with the context of small geographic regions or specific countries instead of large geographic regions such as “Europe” or “Asia Pacific”.

Regional Expansion summary Of the 1,200 journals that we have added so far; we can see that Asia Pacific and Europe dominate, however the European journals are focused towards Southern or Eastern Europe. There is also significant increase in journals from Latin America and the Middle East. Important Note: Please remember that sometimes the country of a journal can be misleading and there are many examples of regional Academic Society journals that are very much focused on one region, but are published by a large commercial publisher. In this case the country of origin will be the country of the publisher and not the country of the academic society. Furthermore, the breakdown of country of origin of journal does not necessarily represent the country of origin of the author. Many authors will publish in international journals that are not published in their country of origin, if you wish to look at the research output of a country it is much better to look at the address of the author affiliations rather than the country of origin of the journal.

Coverage by discipline Here we can see the break down of the journals by discipline. Social Sciences, (e.g. Economics, Law etc) and Clinical Medicine are the largest groups.

Century of Social Sciences Diverse Coverage In addition to Sociology, Psychology, and Economics, this collection includes valuable intellectual heritage within Anthropology, Communication, Education, Law, Political Science, and Public Health, and more. With the July 2009 release of Web of Science Social Science Citation Index backfiles 1900-1955 a wealth of valuable research with several hundred titles will become available in a form that provides not only easy searching, but navigation via cited references. What sources were cited by landmark Social Science papers? What research today is influenced by these historic works? Century of Social Sciences reveals this with instantly, and can provide links to the full text within sources such as JSTOR or publisher electronic archives.

The display of the full article information when hovering over a node has been improved to include full article titles.

Data Usage Building the Institutional Knowledge Base: Support Through Web of Science and Thomson Reuters “Web Services” Complimentary Web Services Capturing, organizing, presenting and promoting the intellectual output of an institution is now a great priority of colleges and universities large and small. For most, this translates to clear initiatives for development of an Institutional Repository (IR). Given the place of prominence of Web of Science within academic communities worldwide, Thomson Reuters is firmly committed to directly assisting and supporting in university IR initiatives through both complimentary and subscribed services.

Data Usage and Maintenance Web of Science/Journal Citation Reports (JCR) Links Article Match Retrieval Service Journal and Article-level bibliographic information may be used in the API request in order to make a match with Web of Science records. Or, unique identifiers in the form of the Web of Science UT (retrievable through Web Services-Light data extraction) or the DOI alone are sufficient for a match. Available ongoing updates of this data provide a level of “currency” that is invaluable in promoting the work of an individual author as well as the institution as a whole. Used in tandem, Web Services Lite and the Links Article Match Retrieval Service allows a Web of Science subscribing institution to retrieve information for papers published by institutional authors, populate an Institutional Repository, and link from this IR information into Web of Science.

Journal Citation Reports – New Metrics and Information Five-Year Impact Factor Rank-in-Category Tables Box Plots Eigenfactor MetricsTM: EigenfactorTM and Article InfluenceTM

Journal Citation Reports - New Metrics and Information Citation Behavior, variance among disciplines: Some fields are very fast moving, particularly within the life sciences, and published research gets cited at a relatively rapid pace. Research in other fields, mathematics for example, makes its impact more slowly over an extended period of time. 2006 Impact Factor Years

Journal Citation Reports - New Metrics and Information Introduction of a 5-Year Impact Factor: To better gauge the impact of journals within fields where influence of published research evolves over a longer period of time than presented by the traditional 2-Year Impact Factor. Immunology Impact Factor is based on two years of cited journal content – cites in the current year to journal material published in the prior two years. A 5-Year Impact Factor is based on cites in the current year to journal material published in the prior five years. Note that in this display of top Immunology journals the 5-Year Impact Factor is, with the exception of one journal, lower than the traditional 2-Year Impact factor. Immunology is a life science discipline that is typically “fast moving” and therefore this makes perfect sense that articles are cited more quickly, and may lose some citation impact after the first few years.

Journal Citation Reports - New Metrics and Information Introduction of a 5-Year Impact Factor: To better gauge the impact of journals within fields where influence of published research evolves over a longer period of time than presented by the traditional 2-Year Impact Factor. Geology Geology Impact Factor is based on two years of cited journal content – cites in the current year to journal material published in the prior two years. A 5-Year Impact Factor is based on cites in the current year to journal material published in the prior five years. Within this display of Geology journals however, the 5-Year Impact Factor is in every case higher than the traditional 2-Year Impact Factor. In contrast to Immunology for example, published research with Geology typically takes more time to fully realize its impact.

Journal Citation Reports - New Metrics and Information Rank in Category table: Many journals maintain an editorial scope that necessitates their inclusion in more than one JCR category. To better reveal the influence of a journal in all assigned categories a Rank in Category table will display each category in which the journal appears along with rank in the category and the Quartile in which the journal is placed in that category - based on Impact Factor.
