Use even more data

In addition to the usual citation indices, the "Book Citation Index" (BKCI) is now available in the Web of Science [1]. This supplements the Web of Science "Core Collection" with over 60,000 books - mainly from the humanities and social sciences, but also from the natural sciences, and the corresponding citation data. In addition, the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI), which evaluates new or regionally significant journals, is now available from 2005 rather than 2015.

Off campus, you can use Web of Science via VPN as well as via Shibboleth, see Using the Library from Outside [2].
