The Bibliosight project will aim to exploit the Web of Science Web Services API that uses standard transport protocols, such as HTTP, and message formats, such as SOAP and XML, to facilitate the exchange of data between Web of Knowledge and a custom application. The aim is to integrate the technology into an efficient workflow to populate the repository with citation information/full text. It will also develop a ‘widget’ that can easily be added to a personal environment like iGoogle or personal/communal environment like netvibes and that will extract bibliographic information for researchers in line with Web of Science licensing.
