ISI Web of Knowledge started in 1955 with Dr. Eugene Garfield's concept of citation indexing and searching. It evolved over decades as technology advanced, bringing together data, tools, and content to create an integrated research platform covering sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities. The platform provides comprehensive coverage from 1945 onward across various databases and allows for cross-database searching and analysis of trends, citations, and more to help researchers efficiently find and use information. It is accessed by over 3,200 institutions globally.
Isi Introduction
- 2. ISI Web of Knowledge started with a single idea...and a man who could see the possibilities of that idea. In 1955, Dr. Eugene Garfield revolutionized scientific research with his concept of citation indexing and searching. Decades later, technology finally caught up with his concept and Web of Science® brought Web linking and citation searching together to create a powerful and versatile research platform. ISI Web of Knowledge was the next logical step-- bringing together a full range of data, tools and technology in one, integrated, ever-evolving resource.
- 3. Content includes data from high quality and relevant journals, patents, proceedings and evaluated web content in the sciences, social sciences, arts and humanities. Coverage goes back to 1945, and includes broad, multidisciplinary content such as Web of Science as well as targeted specialty resources. Tools include cross search, cited reference searching, and full-text linking.
- 4. Added features include: General, cited reference and chemical alerting capabilities; centralized marked list; OpenURL-enabled. Users accessing a monthly average of 137,000 full-text links.
- 5. The Analyze Tool helps researchers discover hidden research trends and patterns. Users accessing a monthly average of 264,000 full-text links.
- 6. Additional electronic backfiles include: Century of Science expands scientific coverage back to 1900; Inspec Archive expands coverage in physics, electrical engineering, electronics, computing and control engineering to 1898. Accessed by over 3,200 institutions in 74 countries. Users accessing a monthly average of 943,000 full-text links.

- 10. ISI Web of Knowledge is today‘s premier research platform, helping you quickly find, analyze, and share information in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities. Over 20 million researchers in 90 countries base their research, planning and budget decisions on the content and analytics they find in ISI Web of Knowledge.
- 11. Much more than simply an aggregation of content and tools, ISI Web of Knowledge is a unified platform that links all its varied data and search terms together, creating one common vocabulary and one truly seamless search. Which means that when you search within ISI Web of Knowledge, your search terms will find all the relevant items that may be categorized differently. New terms will recognize older terms. Specialized terms from one database will recognize specialized terms from another. This unique unified subject classification allows you to do more than search. You can also easily refine your results by the terms that help you pinpoint the data you need.
