Depending on where you are and the facilities available at your location,
you may be able to access through the public anet something called "Carl
Uncover", a strange name , I know, but it is more updated than science
citation index and has a wider range of entries.

Where I am, I type

 Public 10 anet

at the prompt I give

uncover.carl.org

you must then inform old Carl about your terminal type.  Make sure you exit
properly, or you'll not get back on after a hard break.

Good Luck and I hope it helps.
