You can now download all recommended articles on ScienceDirect in one fell swoop. When you select to download the PDF of your original article, the PDFs of the recommended articles also appear in the export screen. Each article has a pre-checked box for downloading and you can easily access the abstract if you need more information about each recommended article to help you decide whether or not you want to download it. Once your export is complete, you will automatically be returned to the original article you were reading!

Note: the files will be downloaded in the format of a zip file. The file name format is as follows: DocumentTitle_PublicationYear_PublicationName.

Want to determine which sources a particular author cites most often? Follow these easy steps in Scopus to analyze citation counts from an author’s total publications. It could be a useful way of keeping up with the literature in your area of interest…

1. Perform an ‘Author Search’ and search for the author of interest
2. Find the correct author from the results list and click on the author’s name
3. From the author’s detail page, find the ‘Author History’ box on the right and click on the number next to ‘References’
4. This opens the search results window and lists the references the author has cited across his or her publications
5. Click on ‘Analyze search results’ and open the ‘Source’ tab
6. Here you’ll not only see a list of the top sources the author references (and number of documents from each source), but you can also use the graph to view even more details, or create a chart in which you can compare journal metric values
7. You can also export, print and email the information from the charts
