Paramount to the UConn Libraries work at
providing access to needed information is analyzing our current resources and
understanding how library resources are used. This is an essential part of our
stewardship of UConn Libraries’ collections.
As part of this work, I seek your feedback
about your use of Web of Science, Scopus
and Google Scholar.
·
Web of Science, Scopus and Google Scholar have
the following features:
o
Search functionality to retrieve article
citations
o
Analysis features to analyze article, author,
and journal impact
Thinking of your most frequent use of Web of
Science, Scopus or Google Scholar please
describe:
1. Do you regularly make use of either Web of Science, Scopus or Google Scholar?
If so…
2. Which resource do you use most often?
3.
In the resource most frequently used, how do
you use the search functionality compared to the analysis features? (Please
consider frequency of use, importance to you, etc.)
4. If you use more than one of these tools, why do you use
more than one? What features do not overlap?
If you have additional comments or questions
about Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, or if you wish to share more
details about how (or if) you use these tools in your research and teaching,
please respond at your earliest convenience. However, responses by May 23, 2014 would be most
appreciated.
