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.
