Everything you need to know about Scopus content but didn’t know to ask
In last month’s webinar the Scopus team brought you an overview of Scopus. This month, Dr. Wim Meester, Head of Scopus Product Management, joins us to bring a more in depth look at Scopus content and how it is relevant to you. From journals to books to conference papers, how is content selected for Scopus and how does it bring you a full view of what’s happening in your research world? Look to learn more about Scopus content curation and the high quality standards each title must meet and retain in order to be included.
If you have questions about what is and is not included in Scopus, how far back content goes, what the coverage is for your area of interest, or how Scopus content coverage impacts author and article-level metrics, this webinar is for you.
Dr. Meester will also share practical tips and tricks to help you get more from Scopus content. For example, did you know you can access the Scopus journal and book title lists from the info site here? It includes such information as journal metrics, open access status and years of coverage.Take a look before the webinar and come prepared with your questions.
