(ICI) is developed by "The Knowledge Foundation" (a registered society) with the
required support of M/s DIVA ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. M/s DIVA ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. is one of the pioneers
in India to develop, preserve, disseminate and serve customized knowledge products
and services to scholarly world. Currently, M/s DIVA ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. is publishing ~170
journals from India with one of the specific motives to promote knowledge contents
published in local national journals and bridge the gap between the content sources
and content users via World Wide Web. Full text online access of their journals
is available to users. While working for online publishing and content delivery
to users, M/s DIVA ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. in association with Mr. Prakash Chand Ex Scientist
NISCAIR, CSIR felt that India is making substantial contribution in various domains
of world knowledge but a tool to measure and evaluate such national knowledge is
not yet in place. Though, at international level few tools/databases are available
but coverage of Indian contents particularly publish in the local national journals
are negligible. To bridge this gap, Mr. Prakash Chand, (The Knowledge Foundation)
with the support of M/s DIVA ENTERPRISES Pvt. Ltd. thought to bring out Indian Citation Index
(ICI) database covering ~1000 top Indian scholarly journals encompassing all disciplines
of knowledge. The ICI database enables access and empowers users to search, track,
measure and collaborate in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities to
turns raw data/information into the powerful knowledge one needs. ICI like other
indexes enables user to move back in time to previously published papers, but uniquely
one can also look forward in time to determine who has subsequently cited an earlier
piece of research. This feature makes this database a specialized information product
and highly useful for researchers, policy makers, decision takers, editors, librarians
etc.
