Try out Generative AI with Scopus

Scopus AI trial February 26-March 24

February 26, 2024 —

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) is becoming one of the most important innovations in how we access and interact with information.

The publisher Elsevier has integrated GenAI with their Scopus database which enhances that access and interaction.

UM Libraries has arranged for a 4-week trial of Scopus AI, from February 26 to March 24. You can access the trial here: https://libguides.lib.umanitoba.ca/az.php.

Scopus AI allows users to search the database and generate trusted synthesized analysis on their search query based on metadata and abstracts from 29,200+ peer-reviewed journals from 7,000+ publishers.

Scopus (sans AI) is a comprehensive, multidisciplinary, abstract and citation database that includes journal articles and patents and is made available to the UM community through the Libraries.
