ISI Web of Knowledge - December 2011

30 November 2011 :

ISI Web of Knowledge consists of few databases containing information gathered from thousands of scholarly journals in all areas of research:

·       Science Citation Index Expanded™

·       Social Sciences Citation Index®

·       Arts & Humanities Citation Index®

·       Index Chemicus®

·       Current Chemical Reactions®

A citation index contains the references cited by the authors of the articles covered by the index. You can use these references to do cited reference searching. A cited reference search enables you to find articles that cite a previously published work.

In addition to cited reference searching, you can search these databases by topic, author, source title, and address.

The two chemistry databases contain graphic representations of the structures and reactions reported in the journal articles they cover. You can search these databases by structure, by compound/reaction details, and by bibliographic information (topic, author, source title, address). Please LOGOFF after finish the search session.

For some background information on the database, please go to the USM Library Website at:
