General Search

As in other databases, the General Search in Web of Science has search fields for topic, author, and source. But unlike other databases, Web of Science has a special search field, which reflects the scholarly nature of the journals it covers.

Authors of articles in scholarly journals give their academic affiliations and/or addresses. Look at the author's academic affiliation in this record from Web of Science.
