# The 'Icore' Field
2+
3+
The [ICORE (International CORE Conference Rankings)](https://www.core.edu.au/home) is a ranking of Computer Science conferences (A*, A, B, C). JabRef allows you to lookup a conference's ICORE rank so you can find out how highly ranked a paper's venue is.
4+
5+
By default, the `Icore` field shows up under the `General` tab below the `DOI` field:
6+
7+
![Icore Field In the General Tab](../../.gitbook/assets/icore-field-1.png)
8+
9+
{% hint style="info" %}
10+
If you can't find it, you can [update your preferences](../../setup/generalfields.md) and add the `icore` field to the `General` tab.
11+
{% endhint %}
12+
13+
Let's do a quick example. Add a new Entry of type `InProceedings` and enter a conference acronym in parentheses under the `Booktitle` field (we'll use SIGCOMM here).
14+
15+
![Booktitle field with SIGCOMM in it](../../.gitbook/assets/icore-field-2.png)
16+
17+
Now, navigate to the General Tab and click the "Lookup conference rank" button to see the ICORE rank for the conference (which would be A*).
18+
19+

20+
21+
Additionally, if you click the button next to the lookup button, JabRef will open the found conference's ICORE page in your default browser.
22+
23+
In case an acronym isn't present in the title, JabRef will then use the full `Booktitle` to match with a conference title. We'll use this long one for our next example:
24+
25+
> Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Cloud Computing and Service Science, 8-10 May 2013, Aachen, Germany
26+
27+
Copy-paste it into the `Booktitle` field, go to the `General` Tab, and click on the Lookup button again to see the conference's rank (which would be C).
28+
29+
![A long booktitle with conference title in it](../../.gitbook/assets/icore-field-4.png)
30+
31+
![Icore field with the conference rank for CLOSER](../../.gitbook/assets/icore-field-5.png)
32+
33+
The feature allows lookups for `InProceedings`, `InCollection`, and `Article` entry types and looks for conference titles in the `Booktitle` or `JournalTitle` fields.
34+
35+
In case an acronym is present but it doesn't match anything, JabRef will still fallback to searching for the entire title string. If a match is not found for the full title either, a notification with "not found" will be displayed and the Open Conference Page button will be disabled.
