Last 2 weeks

Searches the last two weeks of data that we entered in the product database (known as the processing date). This may include "early arrivals" or late arrivals" in the results.

Current week

Searches the most recent week of data that we entered in the product database. This may include "early arrivals" or late arrivals" in the results.

index

From YYYY To YYYY

Searches a range of database years based on the publication year. The default value is generally the earliest year in your institution's subscription up to the date when the product database was last updated.

This is the default setting unless you go to sign in and change your personal settings.

Notes About Timespan

  • An "early arrival" may be a January item arriving in November. A "late arrival" may be a December item arriving in January.

  • If you wish to search for journals with a cover date older than 12 months, then we suggest you select the All Years or last 5 years using the From and To radio buttons
