Journal Citation Reports (JCR) is a comprehensive and unique resource that allows you to evaluate and compare journals using citation data drawn from over 7,500 scholarly and technical journals from more than 3,300 publishers in over 60 countries. It is the only source of citation data on journals, and includes virtually all areas of science, technology, and social sciences. Journal Citation Reports can show you the:

  • Most frequently cited journals in a field
  • Highest impact journals in a field
  • Largest journals in a field

Citation and article counts are important indicators of how frequently current researchers are using individual journals. By tabulating and aggregating citation and article counts, JCR offers a unique perspective for journal evaluation and comparison. For more information about Journal Citation Reports, see here.

 

Links Article Match Retrieval (Links AMR) Service

As part of our subscription, Clarivate provides the University with access to the Links Article Match Retrieval (Links AMR) service. The University's entitlement for the Links AMR service is as follows:

  • Values that may be returned from a successful Web of Science search:
    • DOI
    • Times Cited
    • Link to Related Records Link
    • Link to Web of Science Full Record
    • Link to Citing References
  • Values that may be returned from a successful Journal Citation Report search:
    • Link to Journal Citation Report five year trend graph
  • A bandwidth throttling setting of 3,000 citation requests per minute. A citation is defined as a single match request to the AMR service; each request to the service can contain up to 50 citations.

To request ID and password credentials to access the Links AMR service, contact Ruth Baker at rbaker@georgiasouthern.edu.

Additional details about the throttling service, as well as information on the URL used to access the Links AMR service and sample requests, can be found in the AMR upload service documentation here: http://help.incites.clarivate.com/LAMRService/WebServicesOverviewGroup/overview.html
