Thomson Scientific Editorial Development
• Our Goal
• Build and maintain a multidisciplinary collection of world’s most important
and influential international and regional journals.
• Professional librarians, information specialists, graduate degrees in science
or humanities.
• When are journals evaluated for coverage?
• On an ongoing basis throughout the year.
Journal Selection Process
Objective
Applied consistently to ALL publishers
Credible

Copyright 2006 Thomson Corporation
Comprehensive Coverage and Consistent Indexing
• Cover to cover Indexing assures no gaps in the literature
– All document types applied consistently across all titles to ensure
precise searching across disciplines
• Capture all cited references to articles in covered journals and to
articles in journals not covered.
– 24 million per year – consistently indexed - standardization
• Expert use of citation data help ISI identify important, influential, and
useful publications.
Measure use by analyzing citation data.
In-house database allows us quickly to do this
Editors are skilled at Cited Reference searching

Web of Science
The Web of Science is an ongoing, decades in the making
Collection Development Effort.
What does this mean for the users at your institutions?
-- presentation of “the best” body of journal information
within their areas of interest.
 Undergraduates – the vast majority just don’t know enough about individual journals to make these
determinations on their own. They may simply take whatever they find -- and in the Web of Science
they find quality by default.
 Graduates/PhDs – Require a focus on what is most influential as their own academic intensity
increases dramatically. They must quickly become familiar with the top publications of relevance
to their studies.
 Faculty – A multitude of benefits.
• Efficient, Quality Current Awareness within their fields.
• Citation-tracking capabilities across decades.
• Where should I publish? – Web of Science journals are in fact the journals included within
the Journal Citation Reports.

“Recent developments of ‘competitors’ to the Web of Science, while
interesting and useful for quick links to some citing references, are
clearly not a substitute for a comprehensive citation search”

The value of Web of Science Backfiles…
Enhance your digital library in the Multidisciplinary Sciences,
Social Sciences and Arts & Humanities
• Web of Science back files enable
researchers to discover and link
to electronic full-text archives,
helping to complete the path of
research in over 230 disciplines.
Web of Science serves the
entire research community
at all institutions.
• Researchers, administrators and
students will be able to access
their institution’s historic papers,
discovering which peers have
common interests and potential
areas for collaboration.

“Author Finder” - Q2 2006
Institution is a key component of the
brief process, and when options are
revealed, is often “the thing” that
prompts recall about this Author identity.
Author Finder helps to bring
together what you may already
know, or think you know, about this
author to provide confirmation and
an initial search.
The combination of basic name
and first initial, Category of
publication, and Institution
provides an accurate author
search and also accurately
identifies the full Author name for
future reference – WJ Burke
