Overview (Bibliographic Framework Initiative Technical Site - BIBFRAME.ORG) HathiTrust Digital Library. Federal Library Government Resources - Federal Library and Information Center Committee (FLICC) FEDLINK has engaged the Federal Research Division (FRD) of the Library of Congress to compile a directory of all United States federal libraries and information resource centers (IRCs) worldwide.

Federal Library Government Resources - Federal Library and Information Center Committee (FLICC)

To this end, in the spring of 2011 FRD sent out surveys soliciting general information (name and government affiliation, contact information and location, collection and staff size, hours of operation, leadership, and circulation and reference services) to known federal libraries and information centers. FRD analysts then supplemented the data received from these surveys with research in order to compile as complete as possible a directory of federal libraries and IRCs. The current directory is comprised of approximately 1,111 entries. FEDLINK hopes this directory will raise the awareness of federal libraries and information resource centers and contribute to the more effective use of the resources these organizations maintain.

Journal Citation Reports Help

Half of a journal's cited articles were published more recently than the cited half-life. For example, in JCR 2001 the journal Crystal Research and Technology has a cited half-life of 7.0. That means that articles published in Crystal Research and Technology between 1995-2001 (inclusive) account for 50% of all citations to articles from that journal in 2001. Only journals cited 100 or more times in the JCR year have a cited half-life. A higher or lower cited half-life does not imply any particular value for a journal. Aggregate Cited Half-Life The aggregate cited half-life is calculated the same way as the journal cited half-life, and its significance is comparable. For example, in JCR 2003 the subject category Energy & Fuels has a cited half-life of 7.0.
