Impact factors, and why they won't go away

Year: 2001
Type: letter
Abstract: Brunstein in Correspondence 1 asks whether online publishing will herald the end of impact factors. Unless he is forecasting the end of print publications altogether, this is doubtful. Were print journals to disappear, however, I am confident that a new impact factor would be invented. Information scientists are already computing web impact factors 2 .
