UU Publishing Statistics
Note: The statistics below represent a snapshot of the amount and kind of publications created at the University of Utah. It is by no means complete. The Scholarly Communication Team at the University Libraries hopes to make it more complete by creating and managing USpace, the university's institutional repository. You can help make the picture more complete by contributing both your published and unpublished works. See how (video??)
The statistics originated from the ISI Web of Science database. Web of Science indexes approximately 15,000 journals in the fields of science, medicine, technology, mathematics, social science, business, law, social work, information science, humanities, art and fine arts. The database also indexes book reviews, conference proceedings, news items and editorials.
The database is accessible to University of Utah affiliates via the 'Article Databases & More' link from either the Eccles or Marriott Library website. (If you are off-campus, follow the remote access instructions.) You can perform your own search and view the data as well by following these instructions (video coming soon)
