new version of WoS now has marked items list

Tue Oct 16 16:12:45 EDT 2007

Dear Loet-
Oh dear.  I see that you're right.  

As a librarian I've been so caught up in the (other) glaring problems (such as the inability to suppress EndNote Web and the lack of a marked list and starting people in a meaningless cross search that's like mystery meat) that I missed this.  I would hope someone from Thomson Scientific monitors this list?

So the default (and alas only) format doesn't export affiliations or references? What on earth were they thinking?

I shall try to give feedback through my channels if you all want to do the same.
Christina

Dear Christina, 

It seems to me that we have lost the option to select fields. For example, to include cited references, but to exclude abstracts. 

With best wishes, 

Loet

	Adminstrative info for SIGMETRICS (for example unsubscribe): http://web.utk.edu/~gwhitney/sigmetrics.html 
	I thought it would be fair for me to pass this along since I sent up the alarms when the previous version did not have a marked list.

	From the newsletter:
	Marked List

	*	You can use the Marked List to help you manage your search results within ISI Web of Knowledge, to easily print, export, save or download records 
	*	Every record you mark is automatically submitted to the Marked List when you navigate away from the page 
	*	You can also click on the Submit Marks button to create your Marked List 
	*	You can export your Marked List records to EndNote Web or other reference management tools 

	I think all subscribing libraries now have access to both old and new interfaces.  The new is at: http://newisiknowledge.com <http://newisiknowledge.com/>
