New Product: Scopus (Elsevier)

Scopus is Elsevier's uber-indexing tool, covering science, technology, medicine, social sciences, and a smattering of other general topics.

It also has citation tracking, much like Web of Science and Google Scholar

It will soon be on our Research Databases list, but in the meantime, access it via:http://ezproxy.lib.ucalgary.ca:2048/login?url=http://www.scopus.com
