I Online Training Cycle of the Web of Science database

The FECYT, together with Clarivate, has organized the I Online Training Cycle of the Web of Science database that will take place throughout the First semester of 2026, with the aim of making known the updates, changes and new features of this database, through several free sessions, in Spanish, lasting 60 minutes, and that will be developed over the coming months. The sessions offered for the month of March 2026 are:

March 3 (2-3 pm): Getting Started with Web of Science (Basic Level)
o Accessing Web of Science with my institutional subscription
o Smart Search or Advanced Search?
o Finding links to full texts

March 4 (2-3 pm): Searching Web of Science and Saving My Queries (Basic Level)
o Working with a personal account to save my work
o Searching for a topic using Boolean operators
o Using my history to save searches and create alerts
o Saving my bibliography in bookmarked lists

March 5 (2-3 pm): Identifying the Most Important Documents with Web of Science (Basic Level)
o Identifying retracted articles
o Using filters to identify the most relevant results
o Identifying the most cited documents based on context
o Exporting a list of publications

As usual, it should be remembered that these sessions are open and aimed at all students, researchers and users who are part of any Spanish R&D&I institution with a WoS license.

You can consult all the sessions and formalize your prior registration through this link. The first time you access it, you will be asked to validate yourself in SABiDi with your university credentials. From here, you can choose the session or sessions of your interest. Use the URV institutional email when filling out the registration form. Once formalized, you will receive a confirmation email that you must save because it contains the link to access the session on the indicated day and time. Check your spam folder if you have not received it.

All users who take the courses and answer 100% of all the online questions that will be asked live throughout the session will receive a satisfaction survey by email and, a few weeks later, the certificate of attendance.

You can also download the recorded sessions and training material from other courses on Web of Science and also on Scopus.
