Find Journal Rankings and Impact Factors

The main source for journal rankings and impact factors is the Journal Citation Reports.  The print volumes are available in the Reference area of Ellis Library along with some detailed supplementary material on microfiche.

No humanities edition is published. Volumes covering journal rankings for the previous year are usually published in late summer.  The Journal Citation Reports include impact factors for individual journal titles and lists of  highly ranked journals by subject.  Not all science and social science journals are included in the Journal Citation Reports.

The Science Gateway provides a free online listing of impact factors for science journals as well as some other ranked lists for both social science and science journals.
