The usefulness of the retrieval software of the hosts DIMDI, STN, DIALOG and ORBIT and the ISI CD-ROM for scientometric studies in Citation Index databases is exam ined. The frequency distribution of publications and citations. the co-author and co-citation analysis, and the method of bibliographic coupling are used for examples. Practical prob lems in the work with the online Citation Index are described.
