Web of Science

Database Searching Skills Class on Thursday, April 18th!

Join us in the Isché Library in room 405 (or via Zoom) at 2PM on Thursday, April 18th, to learn about search skills in databases such as PubMed, CINAHL, and Web of Science!

Update: Link resolver working in Web of Science

UPDATE: The link resolver is again working in both the new and classic versions of Web of Science. However, if you wish to use LibKey Nomad with Web of Science, you will need to use the instructions below on how to access the classic version.

The WebBridge LR link resolver is currently not working in both versions of Web of Science. This problem has been reported and we will update when the functionality has been restored.

The new version is now the default view for Web of Science and LibKey Nomad does not work with it now, unfortunately. With the link resolver not working in either version, getting to full text of articles is a bit more difficult, but you can still access the old version of Web of Science where LibKey Nomad works fine,

To get to the classic version of Web of Science click on the Products menu to the right of the screen; there you will see the link for Web of Science (Classic):

Downtime for Web of Science

Due to scheduled maintenance, Web of Science may be unavailable from 7 pm on Saturday, June 2nd, until 7 pm on Sunday, June 3rd. Their site says that access may be intermittent during this block of time. We apologize for the inconvenience and suggest you plan your research schedule according. Or better yet, just enjoy an evening off. You’ve earned it!

What a Sticky Web of Science!

The library has resubscribed to Web of Science for your comprehensive search needs! Along with this renewal, we have Essential Science Indicators and Journal Citation Reports in order to track citations, trends, and journals – including impact factors.

Get caught up in this database again!
