Analysis of Scifinder Scholar and Web of Science Citation Searches.
Whitley, Katherine M.
Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, v53 n14 p1210-15 Dec 2002
With "Chemical Abstracts" and "Science Citation Index" both now available for citation searching, this study compares the duplication and uniqueness of citing references for works of chemistry researchers for the years 1999-2001. The two indexes cover very similar source material. This analysis of SciFinder Scholar and Web of Science shows some important differences as the databases are currently offered. Includes seven tables and three figures. (Author/AEF)
