New resource: Scopus

Elsevier’s Scopus database is now available on the Science Direct platform. The UW Office of Research coordinated this subscription and it is scheduled to be available through the end of 2012. Continuing access will depend on evaluation and funding.

The access url is http://www.scopus.com

You can also access it as a tab on the SciVerse platform which includes Science Direct. Scopus is an abstract and citation database and a competitor to ISI’s Web of Science.

  1. Its citation searching feature certainly doesn't compete favorably with Web of Science's (unless I'm missing something…)
