Cited References: Tracking Who Cited a Particular Publication: Web of Science (SSCI and more)

• Over fifty years ago, a man named Eugene Garfield started the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), which produced the first citation index for papers published in academic journals.  Originally just for the sciences, the company expanded to include the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), to which Sawyer Library subscribes.

• According to the publisher, Web of Science's Social Sciences Citation Index "provides researchers, administrators, faculty, and students with quick, powerful access to the bibliographic and citation information they need to find research data, analyze trends, journals and researchers, and share their findings.  SSCI analyzes almost 2,500 of the world's leading social sciences journals across 50 disciplines.   In addition, the company claims that "every journal included in Social Sciences Citation Index has met the high standards of an objective evaluation process that eliminates clutter and excess and delivers data that is accurate, meaningful and timely."
