Thomson Scientific Partners With Australia's Department of Education, Science and Training as Primary Data Supplier
October 31, 2007


Citation Data Will be Used by Australian Government to
Determine Funds Allocation and Measure the Quality of
Research


    SYDNEY, Australia, Oct. 31 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ --
Thomson Scientific, part of The Thomson Corporation (NYSE:
TOC; TSX: TOC) and leading provider of information
solutions to the worldwide research and business
communities, announced today that it will provide citation
data to Australia's Department of Education, Science and
Training (DEST). The data will support DEST in implementing
the Research Quality Framework (RQF).
 
    DEST is the Australian government department
responsible for administering the public funding of higher
education and for developing and administering higher
education policy and programs. This partnership quickly
follows a recent agreement between Thomson Scientific and
the Innovative Research Universities Australia to provide
National Citation Reports and University Science Indicators
to six member universities. In addition, all the
universities in Australia currently have access to Thomson
Scientific's ISI Web of Knowledge. 

    "We are delighted that DEST has chosen us as its
partner and proud that our data will be used to support an
important nation-wide project on the scale of the
RQF," said Jeroen Prinsen, director of sales, Thomson
Scientific ANZ. "Our ever-growing presence in
Australia reflects our position as an authoritative,
quantitative information provider."

    Today, Australia ranks among the top 10 nations for the
influence enjoyed by its scientific papers, with 2894 papers
among the top one percent cited from 1996 to 2006. The RQF
will play a key role to ensure that research conducted in
Australian institutions is rigorously assessed through
internationally recognized processes to maintain its high
quality.
