Web of Science makes it easy to find out how many times articles written by Einstein authors since 1996 have been cited.
This is how to do it:
1. Open Web of Science
2. Click General Search
3. Near the top of the next screen, under Select timespan, choose the dates you would like to search. The dates refer to the dates when the articles were written, not the dates of the citing articles. Since the Library's subscription to Web of Science is from 1996-present, your selection is limited to articles written after 1995.
4. On the Address line, type in the following phrase: Albert Einstein and 10461
5. Click Search
4. On the following screen, click on the more choices option under Refine your results (near the top of the screen)
5. Click on Institutions
6. Check the boxes next to the first two options, YESHIVA UNIV ALBERT EINSTEIN COLL MED and ALBERT EINSTEIN COLL MED
7. Click View Records
9. On the next screen, click the gray box labeled Citation Report on the right side of the screen.
After a few moments, you will see two graphs. The one on the left tells you the number of articles published in your selected time frame. The one on the right tells you the number of articles that cited those articles published during the time frame you selected.
Phone the Reference Desk if you have any questions about cited reference searching or other ways to use Web of Science.
