What content does Scopus include?
Scopus is ideal compared to other products because it has the broadest coverage of global, curated, relevant research, with smart, simple tools to help track, analyze and visualize research.
53.3M records from 21,912 serial titles and 36,000 books21.3M pre 1996 records | 32.0M post 1995 records
• Content from > 5,000 publishers• “Articles in Press” from > 3,750 titles• Titles from 105 different countries in all
geographical regions• 40 “local” languages covered• More than 2,800 Gold Open Access journals
indexed
| 6
Scopus covers different source types for a reason
JOURNALS
• Timely• Peer-reviewed
(formal research)
CONFERENCES
• Preliminary research (can be a bit less formal)
• Newer ideas
BOOKS
• Thorough analysis of a specific topic
All subject fields, but typical fields with high
ratio of journal publication: chemical,
biological, health sciences etc.
Mainly of importance in Computer Science and
Engineering-related subject fields
Mainly of importance in Social Sciences and the
Arts & Humanities
Different source types are added to ensure that coverage, discoverability, profiles and impact measurement for research in all subject fields is accounted for in Scopus.

How does Scopus select journals?
| 15
How does Scopus select serial content?
• Titles are selected by the independent Content Selection & Advisory Board (CSAB)
• The CSAB is chosen for their expertise in specific subject areas; many will have previously been (journal) Editors
Focus on quality through content selection by the independent CSAB, because:
• Provide accurate and relevant search results for users• No dilution of search results by irrelevant or low quality content• Support that Scopus is recognized as authoritative• Support confidence that Scopus “reflects the truth”

How does Scopus select non-serial content?
| 19
Selection of non-serial Book and Conference contentBooksBook selection is via a publisher-based approach (no individual suggestions accepted). All books from selected publishers deemed “in scope” will be selected for coverage. Priority and selection of publisher’s book lists depends on:• Reputation and impact of the publisher• Size and subject area of the books list• Availability and format of the book content• Publication policy and editorial mission• Quality of published book content
ConferencesEngineering related conferences 2005 going forward included on various vetted lists (no individual suggestions accepted). • Australian Research Council: ARC-A, ARC-B • “MIT” Conferences• DBLP Computer Science Bibliography (orig. db logic program bibliography)• Microsoft Academic Science – Computer Science, Engineering• INSPIRES – high-energy physics (Stanford)• Web of Science – selected engineering-focused/related• OnePetro – Oil & Gas industries (society conferences from API, SPE, NACE, SEG, etc.)• OneMine – mining and minerals (society conferences from SME, TMS, AIME, AusIMM, ...)

Scopus cited references expansion program
Scopus will add cited references to 8 Million pre-1996 articles going back to 1970.
| 24
Why?- Improve the completeness and coverage of back files in Scopus- Enhance the relevancy and visibility of archival content in Scopus- Measure the impact of pre-1996 – for both individual assessment and (historical) trend analysis.- Increase the accuracy of Scopus Author Profiles for older researchers and decision makers.
Pre-1996 cited references expansion program
Coverage years
• Pre-1996, going back to 1970
Number of articles
• We estimate 8M+ articles will be (re-) processed to include cited references
Which Archives
• Archives from all major publishers that have digital archives available
• All subject areas included
What?
Development of required systems
and processes has already started
The first content with pre-1996
cited references will be visible in
Q4 2014
Completed by 2016 when >8M articles
from all major publishers have been
loaded
When?
| 25January 2014, redesign of Author Profiles
| 26May 2014, redesign of Author Profiles
