1. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Web of Science 7.0 via the Web of Knowledge 3.0 Platform The next generation in Smart Discovery from Thomson Scientific Simon Pratt Tehran 22 November

2. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C The Web of Science and Citation Indexing Origins: Dr. Eugene Garfield: a pioneer in the field of information science and scientific communication. His vision: using cited reference searching as a basis for scientific and scholarly discovery. Dr. Garfield’s 1955 article in Science introduced citation indexes as a new type of classification tool -- Use a citation as a search term (instead of a keyword) and as a way to follow the “development path” of an idea.

3. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Evolution of the citation index and research evaluation using citations 1960’s-> Science Citation Index Print 1970’s -> SciSearch, SocialSciSearch 1980’s -> CD-ROM version, A&HCI 1997-> Web of Science 2000-> ISI Web of Knowledge The introduction of the internet and in particular the hyperlink have released the true power of citations

4. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C DiversityQuality Diversity: Truly Multidisciplinary –All fields of research are included in over 200 categories –8,600+ journals total  Over 6,100 titles in the hard sciences alone (SCIe)  Social sciences – 1790 titles  Arts & humanities – 1125 titles Web of Science

5. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C DiversityQuality 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, etc. Web of Science

6. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C A closer look: Journal Selection Process Why be selective? –Economically impractical to cover everything –Analysis of citation data has shown that a core of 2,000 journals account for about 85% of all that is published and 95% of what is cited. –However this core is not static, and additional journals must be included. Thomson Scientific covers this expanded core of journals and enhances it with coverage of hot disciplines that may become main-stream in the future. Additional journals are indexed to provide a broad and even distribution of data across all disciplines and geographic regions.

7. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Thomson Scientifics editorial staff review around 2,000 new journals annually. 10-12% of these journals are added to the collection. Existing database constantly monitored to ensure that journals are maintaining high standards Many factors, are taken into account: –Basic publishing standards Timeliness Follows publishing conventions English language bibliographic information Peer Review –Editorial content Will it enrich the database? Is it a hot topic? –International diversity of authorship –Citation analysis Impact Factor, Immediacy index How the journal compares to other journals in its field Citation analysis of editorial board A closer look: Journal Selection Process

8. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C The Web of Science and Citation Indexing The Impact Factor can be considered to represent how many times an average article was cited in the previous 2 years How was the 2003 Impact Factor of “Journal-X” calculated? A = Total number of times all journals published in 2003 cited articles published in Journal-X in 2001-2002 B = Number of articles published by Journal-X in 2001-2002 Impact Factor = A/B Considered by many to be the de-facto method to evaluate journals, but must be used with care as journal citation data should be used in context and other factors taken into consideration. Another tool for journal evaluation is the Immediacy Index which represents how many times the average article is cited within it’s year of publication. The Immediacy Index can provide valuable insight to just how cutting edge a journal is The Impact Factor

9. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C DiversityQuality Unique Data Data: unique capabilities –Capture of Author Cited References over 55 years provides for methods of discovery that are simply not possible elsewhere. –Navigate “Cited References” and “Times Cited” backward and forward in time across decades of research. –Find articles that cannot be found through traditional free-text searching techniques Web of Science

10. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C 2004 Cited References 2000 1998 2001 1993 2003 Times Cited Related Records 2003 2004 1999 2002 1994 2004  Citing  From just a single record within the Web of Science, expand your search by simply following the links designed to drive discovery. … moving Backward in time via Cited References, Forward in time via Times Cited, and expand your search with Related Records. Citation Navigation

11. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Citation Index - The Value Add The language of science is always changing, concepts and terminology continue to evolve Free-text searching alone will never maximize retrieval of critical information… LAV (in Europe) HTLV-III (in USA) Human Immunodeficiency virus HIV (the world) 19831987Present For Example, the early research connecting HIV to AIDS actually referred to the virus using two different terms. Neither term was “HIV”

12. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C DiversityQuality Unique Data Depth Depth! –Coverage back to 1945 in the Sciences, to 1956 in the Social Sciences, to 1975 in Arts & Humanities –1900-1944 Back files in Development! ** 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. One must retain the resources necessary to make these assessments. Web of Science

14. T H O M S O N S C I E N T I F I C Five or ten years of backfiles only begins to tap the wealth of information accessible through General and Cited Reference search and navigation. Clearly researchers are still heavily citing papers from more than 20, 30, 40 years ago – and even longer. Web of Science Backfiles
