Background

Why should you use Web of Science?

Web of Science does not have full text articles. You must retrieve an article it lists from print or from a full text database. Why, then, is it such a valuable search tool?

Web of Science retrieves all of the references cited in an article, AND it shows all of the places where article has been cited.
