New! Web of Science Database


New Database Subscription: Web of Science

Don’t be fooled by the name! Web of Science is an indexed collection of over 20,000 scholarly journals in science, social sciences, AND humanities disciplines.

The database provides cited reference searching  within those 20,000 journals. This means a growing collection of over 1.3 billion cited reference connections going back to 1900 are discoverable.

Cited reference searching lets you track how any idea, innovation, or creative work has been confirmed, applied, improved, extended, or corrected, and discover anyone who is citing particular research worldwide.
