Arts and Humanities Citation Index
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI) is a citation index of over 1,000 of the world's leading arts and humanities journals.
It was originally developed by the Institute for Scientific Information, which was later acquired by Thomson Scientific. It provides access to current and retrospective bibliographic information and cited references. It also covers individually selected, relevant items from approximately 7,000 of the world's leading science and social sciences journals. As well as this, in 2000, it published a list of the most frequently cited works in the field of the arts and humanities in the previous seven years (i.e. from 1993-2000). The A&HCI can be accessed online through Web of Science.
