Citation Analysis with the Web of Science #1: Introduction

You asked for it. You got it. This is the first video of the frequently-requested update to the "Citation Analysis with the Web of Science" series of tutorials. In this update, I of course used the "new" updated interface of the Web of Science in the videos. I also streamlined the content a little bit and segmented it into 4 episodes. The "Finding Journal Impact Factors" episode will be in its own series, as technically Journal Citation Reports is a separate product from the Web of Science.

This first video is an introduction to the concept of citation analysis and the Web of Science as a citation tracking tool.
