ISI: Web Of Science

July 2004: new version

UW Libraries moves to a new version of ISI's Web of Science in July 2004, with a new interface and features. You can now manipulate larger sets, and an "Analyze" tool provides the ability to analyze search results by author, publication year, subject category, institution, etc.
