Thomson ISI to Expand Web of Science Coverage Back to 1900

More retrospective access from ISI (Ed.)

Thomson ISI has announced the Century of Science initiative. Currently, Web of Science coverage extends to 1945. The Century of Science initiative will expand the Web of Science to include bibliographic data from the highest impact scientific literature published between 1944 and 1900, adding nearly 850,000 articles from approximately 200 journals. The journals have been carefully selected by the Thomson ISI editorial team, based on such criteria as citation patterns, geographic origin, and meaningful balance across scientific disciplines.
