Upgraded Web of Knowledge & Endnote Web

An upgrade of Web of Knowledge and Endnote Web has resulted in the following enhancements:

  • ISI Conference Proceedings has been merged into the Web of Science database: Therefore, when you click on the times cited links within either Web of Science or Web of Knowledge, you can now view records for conference papers as well as journal articles. A new search field, conference paper, has been added and applies retrospectively to past papers as well as those to be indexed in the future.
  • Academics: if your conference paper has been indexed, this may help increase the number of times it is cited.
  • Web of Science: author names and addresses are now linked and furthermore, links to the NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information) have been incorporated.
  • Visual citation mapping: an option to simplify the maps through limiting date ranges has been introduced.

For more information about the upgrade, you might like to view this short presentation (provided by MIMAS).
