ISI Web of Knowledge Upgrades

June 2006

• Refine your results — This new feature brings Analyze functionality to the forefront of a search: helping users get the right results without being expert searchers. Users can start with a broad search and refine the search in steps, one category at a time, until they have targeted exactly the information they need.
  
• Analyze more data, faster — Analyze your complete results set with the expanded Analyze Tool. Users can analyze up to 100,000 results at one time, getting a broader view of trends in their field.
  
• Access full text within CrossSearch^SM — Link directly to the full text of articles from cross searches. Now, no matter where a search is conducted within ISI Web of Knowledge — within an individual product or across many databases with CrossSearch — users can see the same full-text links.

July 2006

• ISI Web of Knowledge interface has changed. It's a new look — but with the same fast searches.
  
• Author Finder is a search refinement feature in Web of Science and Current Contents Connect that enables a searcher to more precisely locate exactly the author he seeks. This new feature helps users improve retrieval results. Precision in author searching will yield exact retrieval of the results.
  
• Improved Topic Search Results — for better results when entering multiple search terms. This change lets searchers conduct searches the way they're used to, with the implied "AND" between search terms. Applies to all bibliographic products on the platform, this change in search syntax affects Topic Search and Cross Search (Keyword search).
