Agenda
1. Brief introduction to Scopus and its coverage
2. Author Search and ORCID - cleaning up your Author profile. Why this is important and how to find future collaborators /competitors on your topic
3. How to stay up to date in your field, how to personalize Scopus and set alerts to save you time finding relevant information
4. Advanced search tips to in-depth literature searches, how to analyse and export information, how to create lists
5. How to view the citation trends for a set of documents, find all publications citing a specific document (or set of documents) and discover the overall impact of publications in a research area

Two Golden Rules of using research metrics
• Metrics should be used together with peer review and expert opinion• When metrics and peer review or expert opinion give different answers,
probe further• “Metrics” does not only mean bibliometrics• Multiple metrics used together give the richest perspective
