Clarivate Rolls Out the Arabic Citation Index
Clarivate introduced the Arabic Citation Index (ARCI) in Egypt, which is the “first local language citation index for the Arabic world in Egypt.” Funded by the Egyptian government, ARCI is available across the country’s entire research community and will be open to the 22 nations of the Arab League by the end of this year. Editors of Arabic-language journals can also make journal submissions. ARCI currently offers bibliographic information and citations to scholarly articles from 400-plus Arabic journals (the language interface is in both English and Arabic).“The Arabic Citation Index, hosted on the Web of Science, will provide scientific communities across the Arabic world with the ability to make their journals, and the discoveries within them, more accessible within their region and beyond. It will connect papers in Arabic journals to more than 1.7 billion cited references and the highest quality research from across the globe,” says Mukhtar Ahmed, president of the Science Group at Clarivate. For more information, read the press release.
