Web of Science

On ISI Web of Knowledge

Often Imitated, Never Duplicated.

While other databases simply aggregate data, Web of Science information is carefully evaluated and selected. This time-tested approach helps conserve an institution’s resources and researchers’ time by delivering access to the most relevant resources.

To this day, only Web of Science offers a true cited reference index.

Only Web of Science offers a true cited reference index, which is still the best tool for discovery and the only method of retrieving accurate citation counts. Trace a particular research forward in time or backward in time to see how works grow and develop in a focused area of research using the only true cited reference index.

Create a colorful, easy to navigate, visual representation of citing-cited relationships to a given document using Citation Maps.
