About Scopus

Scopus is a source-neutral abstract and citation database curated by independent subject matter experts who are recognized leaders in their fields. Scopus puts powerful discovery and analytics tools in the hands of researchers, librarians, research managers, and funders to promote ideas, people, and institutions. Scopus is not a database that provides full-text articles but provides links to access library subscription resources or Open Access materials.

🙋‍♀️ What is a citation database?

A citation gives credit to a source and contains publication information such as author(s), title, and date. Most Scopus citations link to the full-text version of the publication hosted on various publishers' platforms.
