Clemson Libraries will host a training session on how to use Scopus, one of the largest abstract and citation databases in the world, which is now available through the Libraries to all students, faculty and staff.

Representatives from Elsevier, the company that provides Scopus, will be on hand to show users how to use the database and answer questions. Coffee and giveaways will be provided to attendees.

Scopus is a source-neutral abstract and citation database curated by independent subject matter experts who are recognized leaders in their fields. The database contains more than 1.8 billion cited references, dating back to 1970, and more than 93 million items, such as serial titles, books and author profiles. It includes access to tens of thousands of journals in the subject areas of physical sciences, health sciences, social sciences and humanities and life sciences.
