Join the Web of Science Community Forum: Connect, Collaborate, and Enhance Your Research Insights!

Clarivate has introduced the Web of Science Community Forum. This initiative aims to empower users to influence the growth of Web of Science and enhance knowledge sharing among library professionals.

The Community Forum will connect library experts from various institutions. It offers a space for collaboration and ideas about product development. Members will engage through online meetings and virtual discussions. In-person events may also be planned in the future for deeper connections.

Being part of the Web of Science Community Forum comes with several benefits:

• Regular updates: Stay informed about the latest product developments and share your thoughts directly with the product team.
• Shape the future: Have a say in product improvements that align with your institution’s needs.
• Learn from peers: Exchange best practices and strategies to effectively use Web of Science for research.
• Networking: Build professional connections with fellow information specialists and collaborate on projects.

Francesca Buckland, Clarivate’s VP for Product Management in Academia and Government, emphasized the importance of community input. She noted that collaboration has greatly influenced recent developments, like the Web of Science Research Assistant. This tool utilized feedback from a dedicated group of librarians and researchers to ensure responsible AI integration.

With the launch of the Community Forum, Clarivate welcomes even more users to contribute actively to shaping the future of Web of Science.
