3 Web of Science Selectivity and control of content: consistent, transparent standards 12,000 prestigious journals and 716 million+ Cited References Multidisciplinary: Sciences, Social Sciences, Arts & Humanities Depth of more than 100 years, including cited references Consistent and reliable data: Cover to cover indexing Cited references for all years of coverage Indexing of all author names and addresses Unmatched expertise: 50+ yrs. of citation indexing and analysis Conferences and Scholarly Books: complete the research picture Funding acknowledgments: link funding source to outputs The gold standard used by 5,000+ institutions in over 100 countries

4 COMPLETING THE RESEARCH PICTURE: ADDING BOOKS TO WEB OF SCIENCE Science and Social Science and Humanities -- coverage includes publications back to 2005 Content will be comprised of scholarly books, both electronic and print, that present fully referenced articles of original research, or reviews of the literature. Both multi-authored and single-authored Series and non-series Encyclopedias, Reference Books generally not included, though graduate level texts may be considered. Full indexing of Books and individually-authored Book Chapters. Capture of all fundamental bibliographic information as well as author cited references.

5 BIOSIS with cited references for records from 2006 forward BCI combines the unique Biosis content that is critical to life sciences research with powerful citation indexing on the Web of Knowledge platform Citation Summary to keep track of citation counts from BCI, WoS & Conference Proceedings Citation Index Citation report on BIOSIS Citation Index Support searching for Cited Work, Cited Author, Cited Year, Cited Volume, Cited Issue, and Cited Page Citation Mapping Seamless access, research, and discovery in the life sciences with coverage of over 6,000 journal titles Over 165,000 documents from more than 1,500 meetings and additional life sciences content from patents, books, and book reviews

6 CAB Abstracts International content: CAB Abstracts provides global coverage, indexing content from over 7,400 journals from 140 countries in 50 languages. Over 200,000 records are added annually. Specialized indexing: Drill down to specific topics using focused indexing, subject classifications, and the specially designed controlled vocabulary within the CAB Thesaurus. Integrated bibliography management: Use EndNote Web, fully integrated and freely available to any CAB Abstracts on ISI Web of Knowledge user, to easily access and organize your references online. Send references to EndNote Web as you search, share EndNote Web folders with others, store references online between search sessions. Full-text links: Directly access publishers' full-text articles.

7 Journal Citation Reports Over 200 journals in Agriculture 86 journals in Biology 188 journals in Plant Sciences 128 in Food Science & Technology

8 Free Resources ResearcherID: Global, multi-disciplinary scholarly research community. With a unique identifier assigned to each author in ResearcherID, you can eliminate author misidentification and view an author s citation metrics instantly. Search the registry to find collaborators, review publication lists and explore how research is used around the world. HighlyCited.com Web of Science Web Services Institutional Repository

9 Sample searches from Web of Science USDA Grants Where does faculty publish? Faculty Citation Report

10 Thomson Reuters supports the entire academic enterprise Your faculty and students need access to the best scholarly literature Your faculty and students need to create and share bibliographies quickly and accurately You need to make strategic decisions about your faculty and research programs 10

11 Web of Science data provide the foundation for research analytics solutions Data Thomson Reuters Expertise & Processing Research Analytics Resources Web of Science Address unification Data cleansing & standardization Normalization & baselines For more than four decades Thomson Reuters has provided a wide range of tools and services supporting accurate and effective research evaluation. Our specialist work with Web of Science data and ensure maximum standardization and unification before delivery to customers. Thomson Reuters offers not just simple counts and averages, but real metrics founded on baselines for comparison and normalized statistics.

12 InCites: Different types of analysis Customer defined data sets providing article-level source records and related detail. This is most typically comprised of papers associated with a particular Institution. Summary information and metrics on published output and performance at the institution and country level. 360 o view of the world s leading research institutions Data sources such as Academic Reputation Survey, Institution Submitted Data, and Bibliometrics.

13 Citation information in context Citation rates vary among fields. What is good or average in mathematics is very different from what is good or average in biochemistry cites/paper H-index: 13 How good is this? 14.5 cites/paper H-index: cites/paper H-index: cites/paper H-index: 3 What is the context?

14 InCites: Global Comparisons 14

15 Inform program reviews with 30 years of trend data Do the increases or decreases correlate with staffing or facility changes you made? Number of papers: neuroscience & behavior Harvard s output has been increasing steadily

16 Identify disciplinary strengths using normalized citation metrics Relative Impact in neuroscience/behavior: citation impact is normalized for field average citation rate (represented by 1.0)

17 Identify disciplinary strengths using normalized citation metrics Relative Impact in 1.40 Neuroscience/behavior: citation impact is normalized for field average citation rate (represented by 1.0)

18 Aggregate Performance Indicator: normalized across fields for a fair comparison Aggregate Performance Indicator accounts for differences in research focus and the different citation rates across fields

19 InCites: Research Performance Profile- custom built for detailed analysis of your institution s publications 19

20 InCites includes a detailed dataset built to your specifications Examples taken from Mt Sinai School of Medicine sample dataset Analyze researcher performance: Neurosciences These metrics are unique Sort by number of Hof, PR to InCites. received over 2 times the They normalize citation documents performance to expected rate of citation in by research field. identify the most neuroscience, and on average his prolific authors papers rank in the top 18% of neuroscience papers.

21 Generate dashboards for a variety of citation metrics, e.g. Hof, PR Mean percentile: on average, Hof s papers rank in the top 20% of their respective fields Journal actual/expected ratio: Hof gets cited 1.4 times the average for the journals he publishes in H index: 65 papers have been cited at least 65 times each Self citation analysis: 13% of Hof s citations are self citations. H index without self citations is 58.

22 View detailed metrics on each paper, e.g. neurosciences This paper ranks in the top 0.01% of all pharmacology/pharmacy reviews from Compare a citation count to journal and category norms. This paper clearly outperforms the average.

23 Understand your research collaborations: Are there effective partnerships that you can expand? Mt Sinai doesn t collaborate often with McGill Univ, but the research has high impact in its field. 23

24 Understand your funding sources with funding acknowledgement reports Which funding relationships result in the most papers? The most citations? Look for specific grant numbers. View the topics funded by Dept of Veterans Affairs Drill down to papers funded by Pfizer.
