Citation Mapping Tool
In UDiscover, the Citation Mapping Tool can help you explore how research is connected. When you view a result’s detailed record, the Citations section shows you two key things:
-
Other sources citing the publication after it was published
-
Sources that the publication cites in its bibliography or references section
Why Use Citation Mapping?
-
Trace the conversation. See how scholars have built on a publication’s ideas over time
-
Find more sources. Discover newer research that discusses the same topic
-
Strengthen your bibliography. Identify foundational or highly-cited works to include in your own research
-
Stay current. Find more recent studies connected to an older publication you found helpful
