UROC Summer Undergraduate Research Institute Library Guide

Session Outline

In this session, you will

  • locate citation networks for articles in selected search tools/databases.
  • use ResearchRabbit to find connected articles and author networks.
  • come away with another strategy for finding information sources (network strategy vs. search strategy).

About Citation Networks

Citation networks (or trails) connect research literature to each other. Many search tools/databases leverage citation networks to suggest Related Articles and/or allow you to browse Bibliographies (backward citation trails) or Cited By information (forward-facing citation trails).

Use an article's citations trails to find more information related to your research. This video will show you how to locate an article's citation trails in Web of Science, Google Scholar, and UC Library Search. (3 min.)
