We are pleased to announce that the Brown University Library now offers access to the research database Scopus.

Scopus provides access to over 90 million references to scholarly and trade journal articles, books and book chapters, conference abstracts, and patents. Of its interdisciplinary coverage, about 23% is in the health sciences, 15% in the life sciences, with the remainder in physical and social sciences.

In addition to the references for each document, Scopus tracks cited references as far back as 1970. Various metrics are available for references (e.g., times cited), journals (e.g., CiteScore, a competitor metric to Impact Factor), and authors (e.g., h-index).

Create a free account in Scopus to receive email alerts for new citations to articles or authors, or for topical searches.

You can access Scopus via https://library.brown.edu/; or bookmark our direct link at https://login.revproxy.brown.edu/login?url=http://www.scopus.com
