Citation Indexes to Integrated Information
Resources and Beyond Navigating Scholarly
Information to Accelerate Discovery

(No Transcript)
3
The Vision Cited references scholarly discovery
  • Dr. Eugene Garfield 1955 article in Science
  • Cited references more than acknowledgements, but
    links to discover hidden conceptual
    relationships
  • Cited reference searching no specialised
    vocabulary (the reference is the search term)
  • Citation analysis concepts
  • Bibliographic coupling (M.M. Kessler),
  • Co-citation clustering (E. Garfield, H. Small),
  • Citation rankings, Impact factors

4
From print to the ISI Web of Science
  • Print Online Magnetic Tape CD-ROM
  • Web finally, the right technology
  • ISI Web of Science (Introduced in 1997)
  • Citation indexes through a Web interface
  • Traditional Bibliographic Boolean Searching
  • Citation Searching
  • Citation Navigation (Cited References, Times
    Cited)
  • Back files (SCIE - 1945) (SSCI - 1956) (AHCI -
    1975)
  • Average Back File subscription is 17 Years
  • Aggressive feature development (upcoming Version
    5.0)

5
Additional Products
  • Retrospective Products
  • Derwent Innovation IndexSM
  • ISI ProceedingsSM
  • Specialized Content Products
  • ISI ChemistrySM
  • BIOSIS Previews
  • Current Awareness Products
  • Current Contents Connect
  • Evaluation / Analytical Products
  • Journal Citation Report on the Web
  • ISI Essential Science IndicatorsSM

6
Introduce the ISI Web of KnowledgeSM platform
  • Link bibliographic records to the full text
  • Link similar records between various products for
    value add data
  • Links features between products
  • ISI Web of KnowledgeSM platform (2001)
  • All ISI resources in a single, Web-based
    environment for navigating quickly and easily
    through research-oriented/ scholarly information,
    anytime, from the desktop

7
ISI Web of Knowledge platform Phase I (2001)
  • Content
  • Evaluated, multidisciplinary
  • Diverse (journals, proceedings, patents, chemical
    compounds and reactions, Web sites and Web
    documents)
  • Enhanced by complementary, subject-specific
    coverage
  • Tools
  • Searching, browsing, alerting, linking, exporting
  • New Technologies
  • MuscatDiscoveryTM an advanced indexing and
    retrieval technology from SmartLogicTM Group, PLC
  • ISI Links Gateway for centralised links management

8
Muscat Query Engine
  • Traditional ISI engines Boolean (exact match
    systems)
  • Modular infrastructure allows quick
    implementation
  • New MuscatDiscovery query engine
  • Probabilistic model (close match system)
  • Searching both structured and unstructured data
  • Relevance, weighting of terms supports Boolean
  • Two applications
  • Automatic searching of full-text of Web
    documents
  • Cross-content searching

9
ISI eSearchSM full-text search of Web documents
  • Integrates journal article retrieval with Web
    document retrieval without disrupting the search
    process
  • Takes Boolean search terms and translates to
    2-part query (selection, then weighting)
  • Automatically retrieves evaluated Web documents
    from Current Web Contents

10
ISI eSearch
11
ISI CrossSearch cross-content searching
  • Concept searching of different journals,
    proceedings, patents from a single interface,
    with consolidated results
  • Dynamic Boolean Form searching, based on users
    selections
  • De-duplicated summary list with multi-product
    access
  • Single-sessioning across resources
  • This is the first phase of the ISI Web of
    Knowledge of platform

12
ISI CrossSearch cross-content searching
13
The ISI Links Gateway
  • Linking Questions
  • Who is the user? Where does the user want to go?
    What is the appropriate copy/ instance?
  • Past product-by-product duplication of
    authentication, access, and routing
  • Current central server for all links management
  • Intra- and inter-content links
  • Customer archives (OPACs)
  • SFX context-sensitive reference links
  • Links to publisher full-text

14
RoboLinks hybrid linking system
  • No Dead Links policy
  • Direct electronic feeds from publishers
    stability
  • Algorithmic (optimistic) links
  • Other algorithmic links try to create a link on
    demand
  • ISI RoboLinks pre-verifies the link
  • Provides stability while allowing expansion
  • 2,500 full-text titles and counting

15
ISI Web of Knowledge
16
ISI Web of Knowledge platform Future
  • Introduce a Portal environment
  • Expanding content sources to complementary,
    subject-specific resources through new
    partnerships
  • CAB Abstracts (agriculture)
  • INSPEC (engineering)
  • Extending all tools across all content in the
    platform
  • Expansion of full-text links and SFX-enabling
  • Continued development of features in individual
    resources (advanced set-searching in WoS)
