Web of Science: Science Citation Index/Social Science Citation Index
Science Citation Index and Social Science Citation Index are available at the Health Science Campus using Web of Science. These databases are very useful tools for two reasons. First and most importantly, they allow searching by cited references. Second, they incorporate recently published articles very quickly, usually about four weeks after an issue is published, far more quickly than most other databases. Access to Arts and Humanities Citation Index is also available through Web of Science. Search all three tools the same way.
