Citation Search

Introduction

Citation search service provides an official sealed report verifying the research ability of the author by searching the inclusion and citation information of researcher’s publications in specific databases such as SCI, SSCI and EI upon patrons’ requests.

Library provide electronic report copy with the official seal print, which means patrons don’t have to go to library to get the physical report copy.

Completion of a report usually takes 3-5 workdays varying with the number of papers and the type of report. To spare enough time for the staff to process your papers, it is always recommended to submit your requests earlier especially when the number of your papers is very large or the search request is complicated.

For the evaluation of professional titles and some award–winning purpose within SZU, you don’t have to always get the official citation reports from the library. The necessary materials will be gathered by the concerned college or department and sent to the library for a bulk processing. It is wise to make clear the request before you apply for the search report.

Notes:

  1. Only when the article is already included in the targeted databases can it be listed in the inclusion report. (For the report of article published but not included, see Report Type 2. scroll down to find more.)
  2. Applicants should be fully responsible for the authenticity and reliability of the information and materials submitted.
  3. For more information, refer to the “frequently asked questions(FAQs)” on the right corner of this page.
