Moving from Web of Science to Scopus

 We're moving from Web of Science (subscription expires June 30th) to  Scopus (should have access in a week).

Scopus indexes twice as many titles as Web of Science, and includes over 99% of the titles that are indexed by the Web of Science.

Journal Citation Reports will expire with Web of Science, but many faculty currently use Google Scholar and Eigenfactor for citation analysis.

We plan to create a research guide for assistance with these sources.  We also plan to create a guide to Scopus and will offer training as needed.

If you have questions or concerns, please contact your liaison librarian, or Beth Bernhardt (brbernha@uncg.edu) or Tim Bucknall (bucknall@uncg.edu)

Web of Science interface update Sun 1/12-Mon 1/13, possible intermittent outages

FYI for users of the Web of Science database.

Thomson Reuters has posted this message:

Web of Knowledge will release a new look and feel beginning on Sunday January 12, 2014 at 1400 GMT and ending by Monday, January 13, 2014 at 0200 GMT. Web of Knowledge may not be available intermittently during that period. We apologize for any interruption this may cause. Learn more about the New Web of Science.

There are "Quick Tour" webinars scheduled every day this week. I'm attending one and will be updating library guides ASAP.

Thanks,
