Citation Data in QUT ePrints

From this Thursday 10 February 2011, QUT ePrints records will be displaying citation data obtained from Elsevier Scopus and Thomson Reuters Web of Science, alongside full text download statistics. Soon there will also be a link to the Google Scholar record. This will allow QUT authors to easily obtain citation information, which is a measure of research impact, for their research outputs. It will also allow world-wide users of QUT ePrints to obtain citation information at the point of need. Browsing by author name will present all papers with citation information from that author in a single list. Below is an image of how this information will be presented in a brief and full QUT ePrints record.
