The Institute of Scientific Information (ISI - the provider of the Web of Science database) has released its latest lists of citation rates, impact factors and other journal statistics from 2005 in Journal Citation Reports.
Now you can check to see if the rankings for titles in your PBRF profiles have changed; identify possible journal titles in your area for publication, etc. JCR has statistics for around 7,500 quality peer reviewed titles across all disciplines for 2003, 2004 and now 2005.
The Library also runs a "Publishing for PBRF" session through the Training and Development Unit (TDU). This includes training on using JCR and other tools for journal assessment. If you are interested, contact Sarah Cresswell of TDU.
