APSIPA Newsletter - Issue 17

ATSIP has now been accepted for inclusion in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI). This is a new database in the Web of Science Core Collection from Thomson Reuters. ESCI complements other Thomson Reuters indexes by providing earlier visibility for sources under evaluation as part of the Science Citation Index (SCI). We are still awaiting an answer on our initial application made to the SCI and we will try to obtain an answer from Thomson Reuters as soon as possible. Just to be clear, inclusion in the ESCI does not mean that the journal is included in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) - the database that leads to a journal being given an impact factor. What it does mean, however, is that the journal is now more discoverable, which will hopefully lead to more citations, thus strengthening our case for inclusion in the SCI and JCR. ATSIP papers published from 2016 onwards will now be included in the ESCI.
