• The journal coverage of Web of Science and Scopus: a comparative analysis (2015, background): “One of the main issues with citation indexes like WoS and Scopus is that their coverage mainly focuses on journals and less on other means of scientific knowledge diffusion (e.g., books, proceedings and reports).”
• Comparing Bibliometric Statistics Obtained from the Web of Science and Scopus (2009, methodology): “(2008), Gavel and Iselid (2008), Jacsó (2005), Neuhaus and Daniel (2008) and Norris and Oppenheim (2007) compared the general characteristics and coverage of the databases; other studies compared the bibliometric rankings obtained.”
• A review of the literature on citation impact indicators (2015, methodology): “Gavel and Iselid (2008) find that Scopus has a better journal coverage than WoS especially in science, technology, and medicine.”
