Indian Citation Index (ICI) is developed by "The Knowledge Foundation" (a ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. registered society) with the required support of M/s DIVA ICI provides a multidisciplinary research platform covering about 1000 scholarly journals from India. The ICI database also produces other useful products like Indian Science Citation Index (ISCI), Indian Social Science and Humanities Citation Index (ISSHCI), Indian Journals Citation Reports (IJCR), Indian Science and Technology Abstracts (ISTA), and Directory of Indian Journals (DOIJ).
Publishing 170 journals from India with one of the specific motives to promote knowledge contents published in local national journals and bridge the gap between the content sources and content users via World Wide Web. Full text online access of their journals is available to users. While working for online publishing and content delivery to users, M/s DIVA ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. in association with Mr. Prakash Chand Ex Scientist NISCAIR, CSIR felt that India is making substantial contribution in various domains of world knowledge but a tool to measure and evaluate such national knowledge is not yet in place. Though, at international level few tools/databases are available but coverage of Indian contents particularly publish in the local national journals are negligible. To bridge this gap, Mr. Prakash Chand, (The Knowledge Foundation) with the support of M/s DIVA ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. The ICI database enables access and empowers users to search, track, measure and collaborate in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities to turns raw data/information into the powerful knowledge one needs.
It provides powerful search engine basically to perform search and evaluation for researchers, policy makers, social scientists, decision makers, librarians etc. Indian Citation Index (ICI) database is an abstracts and citation database intended to measure and perform two basic functions, general literature search and evaluation using citations similar to international databases. A database in general is a collection of information that is organized so that it can easily be accessed for various purposes, managed, and updated regularly. Indian Citation Index (ICI) use intellectual links by listing both cited and citing works. Like other indexes, this enables one to move back in time to previously published papers. But uniquely one can also look forward in time to determine who has subsequently cited an earlier piece of research.
Indian technology, medicine, agriculture, social science and humanities get documents emanating from India. R&D literature across all disciplines i.e. science, published in 1000 plus journals/serials or in other Objectives Objectives To ensure access to articles published in local Indian R&D literature at national & global level To reflect and represent true picture of locally published Indian scholarly contribution at national and global level To have an authentic tool/ground for effective, & rigorous evaluation of Indian scholarly works
A comprehensive research & evaluation tool for Indian literature Facilitates comprehensive scientometric and bibliometric studies on Indian literature Helps to measure & analyze individual, institutional, regional, and national R&D output for strategic planning An authentic tool to generate complete and comprehensive analytic reports on the health of Indian R&D ICI can generate national R&D indicators like, Indian Journals Citation Reports, etc. Catalyze the image & visibility of Indian knowledge contents and publications Helps decision makers to arrive at some conclusive point to decide the superiority of competitor (s), for some awards, fellowships, recruitments etc. Provides a boost to Indian publishing industry at global level Promote authors to publish their R&D findings in local national Journals of India
