The library currently has a trial of Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a database that presents statistical data that provides a systematic, objective way to evaluate the world's leading journals and their impact and influence in the global research community. JCR covers more than 7,500 of the world's most highly cited, peer-reviewed journals in approximately 200 disciplines, offering access to citation statistics from 1997 onward. JCR enables users to sort journal data by fields such as impact factor, immediacy index, total cites, total articles, cited half-life, or journal title.
To access the trial go to http://access.isiproducts.com/jcr. The user ID is fau and the password is jcr. This trial is limited to 5 simultaneous users, and will end on 5/22/06. Comments on this database trial should be sent to Eleanor Lomax.
