概要	The Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) is a supplement to Web of Science Core Collection launched by Clarivate Analytics in 2015 to expand journal coverage beyond the traditional Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E), Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), and Arts & Humanities Citation Index (A&HCI). ESCI includes high-quality, peer-reviewed journals that are newer, from underrepresented geographic regions, or from emerging disciplines not yet established in traditional indexes. Unlike SCI-E/SSCI journals, ESCI journals do not initially receive Impact Factor calculations. However, ESCI serves as a pathway: journals demonstrating sustained citation impact and adherence to quality standards may be promoted to SCI-E/SSCI and gain Impact Factor recognition. ESCI addresses systematic geographic and disciplinary biases in traditional indexing by including quality journals from developing economies, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and Asia.	Ulrichsweb is a comprehensive, subscription-based global serials directory cataloging over 300,000 print and electronic journals, magazines, newspapers, and other periodical publications. Developed by ProQuest (originally R.R. Bowker), Ulrichsweb has served librarians and researchers for over 90 years as the authoritative source for journal metadata, publication information, and peer-review verification. A unique feature is Ulrichsweb's verification program: editorial staff contact journals directly to confirm peer-review claims, marking journals as 'refereed' only after validation. This verification process distinguishes legitimate peer-reviewed journals from predatory publishers falsely claiming peer review.
