AB -  The basic idea underlying citation indexing is expressed in the following quotation: "A citation index is an ordered list of references (cited works) in which each reference is followed by a list of the sources (citing works) which cite it. The cited work may have been quoted, discussed, criticized (as in a book review) etc." (Garfield, 1965a). The mechanics of constructing such an index consist first of examining the journals and other source documents published in a given year. The first-named authors of articles in the source documents become the units of a source index. Then the authors of each reference cited by the source authors in a source document becomes a unit of the citation index, no matter what year the cited reference was published. Indeed, one can find Aristotle, Galileo, Faraday, and Darwin among the cited authors in the 1964 Science Citation lndex. This fact also illustrates that there is no restriction of citation to domestic publications. The editor of the Index has provided a detailed description of its nature and potential uses (Garfield, 1964b); Steinbach (1964) has reviewed the 1961 243 J O U R N A L OF E D U C A T
