Database info
Scopus is Elsevier’s general abstract and citation database, covering a wide variety of resources across all academic disciplines. See the information on Scopus’ website or in the Content coverage guide for a full description of the content. Full-text access to articles is restricted to Open Access articles and to NON-OA articles in journals to which University Maastricht subscribes. Use Scopus to:
- Find scholarly articles, conference proceedings and reviews
- Find citations and conduct a further search based on the citations you found
- Check how many times and by who publications have been cited
- Author citation reports.
When you have found an article, you may find more literature by:
- ‘Cited by’: gives a list of publications referring to this article
- ‘References’ and ‘view references’ options: gives a list of publications referred to in the (selected) articles
- ‘Related records’: gives an overview of publications containing overlapping literature references
- Clicking on the name of the author, in order to get more publications by this particular author.
