Thomson Reuters launched the new Web of Science interface – with unified search field – on 12 January 2014. The EUI Library has created a support page for the upgrade. From March 2014, the Web of Science will be cross-linked with Google Scholar, and EUI members will be able to click through to full texts in the Library collections. A presentation of the new features will take place on Friday, 28 February, at 13:30 in the Library training room. More details…
