Premium content – as important as this may be, content alone is not enough to drive discovery in today’s digital environment.
The ISI Web of Knowledge objective – Smart Discovery
through provision of the ultimate environment of discovery for the user.
In adherence to this objective, the Strength of the ISI Web of Knowledge lies not only with the information it contains, but with the way it works.

• Editorial Selection – which journals to includeThe Web of Science is a carefully developed and maintained collection of influential journal literature. The inclusion of every journal and serial, 8800 titles, is determined through rigorous evaluation.
• Our selection of journals published 1900-1944 involved:
• Examination of citation patterns within the existing coverage, 1945- present, to identify high-impact titles
• Assessment of multidisciplinary representation within the core group of high-impact journals of this era

* Boyak KW and Backer A, "The Memory of Science", Submitted for Oral Presentation at the 9th International Conference on Scientometrics & Informatics, August 25-29 2003, Beijng China
Two Sandia National Laboratories researchers recently reported*…
“… the new ease of access to information [internet and novel technologies] has increased the proportion of older publications cited, despite a significant increase in the number of papers published each year, suggesting that scientists are relying less on their memory of recently published papers and relying increasingly on computer searches whose scope now extends to the last 50 years or so.”
Essentially, if researchers have access to published research that is “older” in nature, the intellectual
content of this material will be utilized.

Its Premise:
Thomson-Scientific has for decades captured author cited references (bibliographies) from journal articles that are indexed in the Web of Science and Current Contents. Journals indexed in these two databases are rigorously evaluated and selected for their international influence.
This data is extremely important in revealing precisely which journals publish content that is subsequently cited most frequently within papers presented in the most prestigious journals in the world.

What are the benefits of Essential Science Indicators?
• Rankings– Use researchers’ acknowledgements (citations) to quantify top research
and indicate the influence of a scientist, institution, country, or journal
– Find the productivity of an institution (number of papers) as well as its influence (number of citations)
• Benchmark analysis– Use citation averages and percentiles to measure the relative influence of
research papers against others in the same field
• Editorial commentary– Gain a view of the scientific landscape through essays and articles;
offering context and background, not just numbers
