Web of Science – What is a citation?
Citation Index - The Value AddThe language of research is constantly changing, as research progress concepts and terminology evolve.
• Text based searching may miss critical information• Network linkages through citations facilitate the discovery of
information across the boundaries of terminology
LAV(Europe)
HTLV-III (USA)
HIV + many variants, “SIV”
1983 1987 Present Future
???
This particular article is highly cited and relevant, but does not contain the term “HIV”
Therefore, this record cannot be found by searching for the text “HIV” but is easily found by using citations

Metrics
Analyze results for detailed analysis such as collaborator identification
Citation Index – The Value add
Instant Citation Reports to easily evaluate research and identify trends
Visualize citations using the Citation Map. Identify trends and track research pathways
The separate data sources are selectable for specific search objectives
Search lemmatization: Generate more comprehensive results.Searching for “tooth” will also retrieve alternates such as “teeth”
Sort the results by “Times Cited” to identify the most influential research
No limits to the number of search results.Refine results to efficiently narrow the search or run a detailed analysis of the entire result set
Expandable abstracts for easy browsing
The Analyze feature is a powerful analytical tool to identify trends and refine searches. Export of the analysis is simple
Identify the top countries for a particular research topic…
…or any other field
And identify trends
Citation Report provides an instant overview of the publication and citation history
Summary statistics and a breakdown per article are provided.

Link to the Citing Articles
All author names captured, including the full name when availableAuthors are linked to addresses making the affiliation clearAll addresses are captured and addresses are standardized for easy searching
Funding Acknowledgements are captured for easy identification of grant based research and commercial interests
Link to other resources on the Web of Knowledge platform
Link to external resources

Result save / export options include print, save, e-mail, marked list, alerting and RSS.Can also export automatically to EndNote and EndNote Web
EndNote Web Archiving Search Results Sharing Information Formatting Bibliographies Writing efficiently
Share folders with colleagues, for example a research group or the reading list for a class
Permanently archive results. Organize results around your different projects etc.
Cite While You Write™
As you write an article – search your EndNote Web for items you wish to cite
Automatically insert the complete bibliography of the paper and format to the style you require. Saves researchers and students a huge amount of time, enabling them to focus on writing the article
EndNote Web is included as part of the Web of Knowledge platform, fully integrated with the Web of Science and ResearcherID
ResearcherID is a freely available website where researchers can register themselves and list their publications. A useful tool to help researchers increase their global visibility and network with other researchers
ResearcherID also includes basic citation metrics, available to the public
ResearcherID also includes network analysis tools for co-author and citing articles.
