Abstract

The revolution the Web has brought to information dissemination is not so much due to the availability of data--huge amounts of information has long been available in libraries--but rather the improved efficiency of accessing (improved accessibility to) that information. The Web promises to make more scientific articles more easily available. By making the context of citations easily and quickly browsable, Autonomous Citation Indexing can help to evaluate the importance of individual contributions more accurately and quickly.Digital libraries incorporating ACI can help organize scientific literature and may significantly improve the efficiency of dissemination and feedback. ACI may also help speed the transition to scholarly electronic publishing.
