Thomson Scientific, part of The Thomson Corporation, launched its Citation Impact Forum, an online forum promoting scholarly discussion about all facets of citation-based research evaluation. The Citation Impact Forum will feature interviews with and commentary from industry leaders – bibliometricians, researchers and publishers – about scholarly evaluation. By becoming a registered member of the forum, users have the added ability to join invitation only forums where they can participate in discussions by sharing their own thoughts with other members. Registered members can also recommend future forum discussion topics. Thomson Scientific will also use the Forum to address – or to clarify — inaccuracies and common misinterpretations circulating among the scientific community, printed in journals, blogs and other forums. Thomson Scientific’s Citation Impact Forum, can be found by visiting: scientific.thomson.com/citationimpactforum/.
