Dear ALL,
Cab anyone please assist me with a list of all informatin science journals in the world. It will be ok if the details are attached, in addition. My Institute is a compiling this list for the purpose of subscription. Thank you for your kind and urgen response

Dear Stefanie, 

Using tapeyears allows for an update end of January and for these aggregated
data the differences can be expected to be marginal. I don't think that
Scopus has tape years; otherwise, I would have used them.

Olle: Indeed, I find (in Figure 3) extremely stable numbers for both
Switzerland and the Netherlands (SEM: 0.01%). The only exception seems to be
in your graphs the increase in the percentage share of Norway. That had
already been signalled. 

Thanks, 
Best wishes,

Loet

Dear Olle, dear Loet,

it is now even possible to obtain the world output without the workaround of
the title query by searching for the publication year directly:
"PY=2000-2010" should retrieve all documents published between 2000 and
2010. You should be able to use the analyze function on the result as well.

Loet, can you tell me, if there was a specific reason why you used tape
years instead of publication years for the WoS data? Thanks!

Best,

Stefanie

Dear Loet,
good that you made me aware of new WoS having no max limit for record sets.
Made me make this


[cid:825243714 at 11102011-1985]

this comes reasonably close to NSI data from Thomson itself, although they
count differently. Compare with page 26 in
http://www.fpol.no/Forskningspolitikk/Lists/Research%20policy%20magazine/Att
achments/30/Forskningspolitikk_3-2011.pdf

World output can be found using: TI=(A* OR B* OR C* OR D* OR E* OR F* OR G*
OR H* OR I* OR J* OR K* OR L* OR M* OR N* OR O* OR P* OR Q* OR R* OR S* OR
T* OR U* OR V* OR W* OR X* OR Y* OR Z*) and then I used the Analyse
function.....

Best

Olle

World Shares of Publications of the USA, EU-27, and China Compared and
Predicated using the New Interface of the Web-of-Science versus
Scopus<http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1110/1110.1802.pdf>
The new interface of the Web of Science (of Thomson Reuters) enables users
to retrieve sets larger than 100,000 documents in a single search. This
makes it possible to compare publication trends for China, the USA, EU-27,
and a number of smaller countries. China no longer grew exponentially during
the 2000s, but linearly. Contrary to previous predictions on the basis of
exponential growth or Scopus data, the cross-over of the lines for China and
the USA is postponed to the next decade (after 2020) according to this data.
These long extrapolations, however, should be used only as indicators and
not as predictions. Along with the dynamics in the publication trends, one
also has to take into account the dynamics of the databases used for the
measurement.
