Citation Indexing Review: Péter Jacsó Reviews Web of Science
Péter writes:
This granddaddy of citation indexes has kept adding new content and software features through regular updates, and now has reached a very important milestone. The clustering of results set by eight criteria; the instant calculation and superbly informative and compact visualization of new citation measures, such as the sum of times a paper was cited; the insta-charts showing the contour of publishing productivity and citedness pattern of the chosen entities (authors, journals, organizations, topics) across time; and the exporting of these details into a spreadsheet and/or to the free version of the Web-based Endnote software represents more than a series of evolutionary steps.
The last time Jacsó reviewed Web of Science was two years ago. Here’s a link to that review.
