SciVerse
PlatformAugust 28, 2010:
ScienceDirect and Scopus integrated on the SciVerse platform
• Single log-in provides access to all licensed
and free SciVerse products – Hub,
ScienceDirect, and Scopus.
• Increased interoperability and easier
navigation between solutions
• Image Search for full-text articles and
books (e.g. photos, tables, videos)
• Integration of REFLECT, the 2009 Grand
Challenge winner, offers contextual
information on proteins, genes and small
molecules within articles.
• Reference Work Helper links to relevant
reference works on ScienceDirect directly
connected to a selected article
• Author Evaluation tool visualizes author
data to aid collaboration or individual
assessment decisions
• Citation Tracker: it is now possible to
download citations from 20,000 records at
one time, and increase from 5,000.

Applications
SciVerse
HubBetaOn August 28, 2010, SciVerse Hub was launched with three free
Applications for all customers
• One search across a single index of
ScienceDirect, Scopus, and web content
• Three embedded applications for all users
that include:
• Methodology section search application
for full text articles
• Sentence matching application efficiently
assesses search results and displays query
words in the full sentences where they
appear
• Prolific author search application finds the
most “prolific authors” publishing articles
about search terms, linking into articles by
that author within Scopus.

SciVerse ScienceDirect
ScienceDirect
• ScienceDirect is Elsevier’s extensive and unique full text database that
covers authoritative titles from the core scientific literature.
• More than nine million full-text articles from 2,500 journals and 11,000
books are available in ScienceDirect, making up 25% of the world’s STM
literature.

Collaboration is Key
• ScienceDirect collaborates with 3rd party providers to further
accelerate research
• Partnership with NextBio has enhanced ScienceDirect content in
the fields of life sciences, health sciences and chemistry
Content with NextBio Functionality
… Enriched ScienceDirect content in
the fields of:
Life Sciences
Health Sciences
Chemistry
… Journals, Book Series,
Handbooks, and eBooks
… 1995 to present
Using ScienceDirect with NextBio
While viewing an article or book chapter on
ScienceDirect, the keywords from that
selected article or book chapter are matched
against NextBio’s biomedical ontologies.
Directly on the article page, researchers will
find the NextBio application which presents
key terms found in the selected article or book
chapter.
Using ScienceDirect with NextBio
The in-context pop-up allows
the researcher to quickly gain
an overview of the article
from the perspective of their
chosen term, and to quickly
link through to other
information.
Using ScienceDirect with NextBio
Clicking within the NextBio
application box allow for further
exploration of the subject based
on the trustworthy and publicly
available sources collected and
compiled by NextBio.
Using ScienceDirect with NextBio
On selecting a category
and source, results can be
further sorted and refined
New! ScienceDirect for iPhone!
SciVerse Scopus
What is Scopus?
The largest abstract and citation database
of research literature and quality web sources.
It provides users with comprehensive coverage
of leading peer reviewed literature.
40 million records
20 million cited records, 1996-present
20 million back files, 1823-1995
What does Scopus Cover?
16,500 peer reviewed journals

Journal Metrics
University at Albany Lunch and Learn
Compare up to ten journals at
one time
More on SJR
SJR is a prestige metric – citations weighted depending on where they come from
- A journal transfers its prestige by citing
- Prestige transferred = journal’s SJR
e.g. Lancet SJR 2007 = 1.541 – high prestige
e.g. Scandinavian Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports SJR 2007 = 0.153 – lower prestige
A journal’s prestige is shared equally between its citations
Life Sciences journal
• High impact, lots of citations
• One citation = low value
Arts & Humanities journal
• Low impact, few citations
• One citation = high value
Normalize for
differences in
citation behaviour
between subject fields
More on SNIP
Calculate ‘Citation Potential’ for 2009
1. Collect papers citing 1-3 year old papers
in target journal in 2009
2. Collect reference lists of citing papers
Etc.
3. Count number of references in citing papers
to any (in any journal) 1-3 year old papers
Etc.
4. Citation Potential = average number
of references to any 1-3 year old papers
SNIP = 2009 Impact / 2009 Citation Potential
• Life Sciences – high impact, high Citation Potential
• Arts & Humanities – low impact, low Citation Potential
Normalize for
differences in
citation behaviour

“Just as scientists would not accept the findings in a scientific
paper without seeing the primary data, so should they not rely on
(the) impact factor, which is based on hidden data. As more
publication and citation data become available, we hope that
people will begin to develop their own metrics for assessing
scientific quality rather than rely on an ill-defined and manifestly
unscientific number.”
Scopus API
Through the Scopus API, any website can incorporate
Scopus' powerful search capabilities, high quality citation
data and up-to-date citation counts.
Why is this Important?
• Sourcing and providing accurate publication data
efficiently.
• The very best repositories often miss 40% of their
institute’s output.

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Point out Methods Search application
  2. Point Full Text, Abstract and External Icons
  3. Searching
  4. ScienceDirect offers a dedicated image search with e.g., links to its location within the source article to easily understand the context. Users save time by not having to scan complete articles to find relevant images (e.g. figures, photos, tables, and videos)
  5. For Life Science users SciVerse ScienceDirect offers articles enriched with contextual information on proteins, genes and small molecules as assembled by European Molecular Biology Laboratory’s service Reflect. Reflect recognizes proteins, genes and small molecules from web pages, and link them to information-rich summaries. These can now be found directly from within the SciVerse ScienceDirect article.
  6. Related articles from Reference Works are offered on the right hand side of an article in order to connect essential and fundamental information from reference works on SciVerse ScienceDirect. In that way users can easily access related basic knowledge for broadening their perspective or better understanding a new and unfamiliar topic.
  7. By clicking on the underlined key terms within the article, the researcher can zoom in on that term and find an overview of where the key term appears in the article, a description of that term, and related content.
  8. e.g. locate key authors and their affiliations, view only tissue-related results, and/or select the full set or a limited number of results to name just a few options.
  9. Something that Elsevier is very proud of is Scopus’ international journal coverage. It is very important to capture the surge in publication growth coming from developing countries. China has had a 505% growth in research output over the past 10 years
  10. Many institutions also find it difficult to comprehensively identify all published research produced by their researchers (especially those that are no longer with the institute).
  11. Here is an example of how a customer at Hong Kong University uses Scopus API to highlight his achievements.And this is an example of how Baystate Medical Center shows off recent faculty publications.We encourage you to register your institute through the Scopus info cite.
