Topic search is mapped to multiple fields, non
experts can take advantage of enhanced indexing.
Additionally indexing is applied across all
databases to find additional
results.

Records are consolidated, not eliminatedCopyright 2006 Thomson Corporation
Cross Search
• Search multiple resources from one convenient interface
• Broaden your search with additional resources
• Duplicate records are consolidated not eliminated
• Apply specialist indexing across resources to discover new results
For example: Topic = “ACE inhibitor and cell* growth” (latest 5 years)
When searched as
standalone products:
Web of Science

All Content Becomes More
Usable and Powerful for Discovery
• DII Upgrade:
– Alerting
– Analysis
– Refine Results
– WoK Look and Feel

BIOSIS Archive – coming soon!
• Digitization of the historical Biological Abstracts print archive
• First time to be published in electronic format
• Coverage from 1926 to 1968
• Additional 3.5 million records
– Majority of the records are from Journals with additional coverage from academic
meetings and books
• Value added abstracts
– Many unique to BIOSIS
– Written by respected researchers in the life sciences. Some of the authors are
now renowned leaders in their respective fields of research
– Because many of the original articles did no include an abstract, the BIOSIS
abstracts are essential for comprehensive retrospective searching.
• Value added indexing
– Powerful functionality to maximize search effectiveness
– Consistent throughout the entire archive

Web Citation index – indexing Institutional Repositories
• Selected quality content
– Using Thomson Scientific’s strong history of journal and web site
selection policy to create a new process for evaluating IR content
• Value added features and content
– Using a combination of Thomson Scientific know-how and NEC’s
technological expertise to index cited references
– Powerful functionality of the Web of Knowledge interface
– Integration with existing resources such as the Web of Science
• Helping Intuitional Repository administrators promote their services
– Product has been created in partnership with leading IR organizations
– Create a single environment for users to search multiple forms of content
– Increase the visibility and usage of IRs
Copyright 2006 Thomson Corporation
Full Text and
repository are
searchable fields
Copyright 2006 Thomson Corporation
Same functionality as the
Web of Science. For example,
sort by “Times Cited” to
identify influential works
Copyright 2006 Thomson Corporation
Although the Full-text is searchable
the Full Record displays
bibliographic data and abstract
Clicking the “View Full
Text” button will link to
the item in the repository

Use citation navigation to
expand the search:

Results Analysis is
also possible

How Complete Can it (Possibly!) Be?
Challenges
• IRs contain immense variety of document types and formats
• They are evolving in scope, content, and goals
• Huge interest in the Academic/library Community – very high
expectations of Web Citation Index
WCI Goals for 2006
• Grow to encompass majority of IRs (over 500 identified)
• Provide ability to view activity within repositories and across repositories
• Complement Web of Science with additional citation relationships
• Create environment for experiment and understanding of new content
Copyright 2006 Thomson Corporation
Journal Use Reports – What Is It?
• A new tool that combines data from a variety of sources in one
location:
– Web of Knowledge Usage statistics
– Journal performance data from the Journal Citation Reports
– Institutional publication activity (from Web of Science)
• Includes citing and cited data at an institutional level
– Article-level data from the Web of Science
– External data sources:
• Holdings data from OPAC
• E-Journal usage statistics from vendors
• Enables analysis in the context of the institution
– Journal Performance and usage for collections evaluation
– Publication activity reports analyze journal use and institutional
publishing patterns
– Able to create profiles to evaluate individual departments/schools
