Selection Criteria

To build Current Web Contents, subject specialists in the Thomson Reuters editorial department have designed a comprehensive selection process modeled on the quality editorial standards developed and practiced by Thomson Reuters for over 40 years. In the absence of peer review, citation data, and established journal publishing standards, measuring the value of a Web site has necessitated the development of specialized criteria specifically oriented to Web information. These criteria include authority, accuracy, and currency.
