Thomson Reuters Adds Web of Science Content to Patent Prior Art Research Tools
The Intellectual Property & Science business of Thomson Reuters added 21 million more scientific journal articles to Thomson Innovation. The nonpatent collections now comprise 85% of the World Intellectual Property Organization’s minimum documentation requirement.Access to patent content, scientific journals, conference proceedings, business data, and news information are critical in the quest to determine if an idea is unique and has potential for further development. The latest Thomson Innovation enhancements make this quest much easier and more complete, integrating a deeper scientific literature backfile and access to the full text of journal articles within one, unified platform. Users can now opt to access the entire Web of Science backfile from within Thomson Innovation, with coverage dating from 1898, or select entitlements grouped by date range; links are available to order the full text of the records or to connect to internal holdings and open access publications. Also available are funding acknowledgement data to track funding sources or to monitor a competitor’s R&D, the ability to track literature citations to see who cited key scientific research and how the research was used, and a tenfold increase in the number of journal articles that can be analyzed in landscape maps, charts, and text clusters. Visit Thomson Innovation’s website to view the latest enhancements and content additions. Source: Thomson Reuters
