Abstract:
The idea of a unified citation index to the literature of science was first
outlined by Eugene Garfield [I] in 1955 in the journal Science. Science
Citation Index has since established itself as the gold standard for
scientific information retrieval. It has also become the database of choice
for
citation analysts and evaluative bibliometricians worldwide. As scientific
publication moves to the web, and novel approaches to scholarly
communication and peer review establish themselves, new methods of citation
and link analysis will emerge to capture often liminal expressions of
peer esteem, influence and approbation. The web thus affords
bibliometricians rich opportunities to apply and adapt their techniques to
new
contexts and content: the age of 'bibliometric spectroscopy' [2] is dawning.
