Serials Solutions Summon integrates Web of Science content
Posted by: Sue Polanka

Serials Solutions, a business unit of ProQuest LLC, today announced the integration of content from the Thomson Reuters subscription-based Web of Science service with its Summon web-scale discovery service. This integration enables display of cited-by counts in Summon search results for ISI Web of Knowledge SM subscribers to highlight the highest impact articles for researchers. The Summon service will also use citation counts as an element of relevance ranking.

A tip from the Arizona State University blog – As I recently announced, Web of Science content is now discoverable in Summon along with the citation counts. For those of you who subscribe to Web of Science, be sure that you have this source marked as “tracked” in the Serials Solutions Client Center. As I also mentioned previously, not all of the citation counts from Web of Science are present in the Unified Index, but they will be flowing in over the next few weeks.
