Coverage back to 1945 in the Sciences, to 1956 in the Social Sciences, to 1975 in the Arts & Humanities. 1900-1944 Backfiles in Development! ** Current information is of course critical. However, access to an archive of influential research is absolutely important. ** Impact of previous findings, even decades old, may be very significant. One must retain the resources necessary to make these assessments. Data: unique capabilities Capture of Author Cited References over 55 years provides for methods of discovery that are simply not possible elsewhere. Navigate “Cited References” and “Times Cited” backward and forward in time across decades of research.
