Faculty, students, and community researchers are invited to learn how to use Scopus to find author profiles of you and your colleagues, use citation tracking features, view your h-index, create visual displays of publication patterns, and use export and alert features. The presenters will also describe how Scopus will allow you to integrate ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) <orcid.org> and Mendeley (a web based citation manager) <www.mendeley.com/‎>, as well as how to analyze and compare journals for publication using Scopus.

Scopus is a citation and abstracting database that provides coverage of the peer-reviewed journal and conference literature, with links to full-text where available through the Library. It encompasses over 20,500 titles in the scientific, technical, medical, social science and arts and humanities disciplines. Scopus allows researchers to perform citation searches to see how many times a work has been cited, by whom, and to rank searches by times cited, for the period 1996 -present. It is also possible to extend a Scopus search to include a curated index of over 375 scientific web pages as well as over 24 million patents.
