In response to a lot of customer feedback regarding how Web of Science manage and label Early Access publications, some changes are made to how to identify and label items indexed as “Early Access”. Early Access publications will display dual document type and maintain Early Access year alongside Final Publication year in Web of Science.

•  Quick Filter:

Using the “Quick Filter” to find Early Access publications will find all items indexed as Early Access even if they have been uppdated with final publication details.

•  Dual document type:

Early Access items will maintain their Early Access document type even after these items have been updated with final publication details.

•  Dates:

Both “Early Access date” and “Publication date” will be listed on the full record for items that have been indexed as Early Access and have been updated with final publication details.
