Citation databases
Citation databases can be used for cited reference searches, enabling you to find, check and track
citation data year-by-year, navigating forward and backward through the literature related to a topic.

Purpose
You can use a citation database to:

• distinguish between authors with the same name, or an author's name that has been presented in different ways
• analyse search results to show the number of documents broken down by various criteria, including year, author, source, affiliation, or
subject categories
• search within results by adding additional terms to the initial search
• identify highly cited works related to a particular topic
• find related works that share references or authors
• create search alerts to keep up to date with developments in your discipline
• set up citation alerts to notify you when a document or author is cited elsewhere
• set up alerts to notify you about new documents by an author
• generate a profile that presents an analysis and citation summary of works published by an institution or author(s), including h-index
• compare the performance of journals in a particular subject area.
