Scopus changes

There were some changes to the Scopus interface on 1st February - the goal being to reduce the number of steps needed to accomplish the most common tasks.

  • The Scopus interface is more action driven. Items or icons will only appear active when the user performs an action. For example, on the Home page, ‘Search history’ is not shown until the user has actually performed a search. On subsequent pages, options such as ‘Export’ will only become available when the user has selected results to export.
  • It is easier to scan results on the Results page and to sort and export the chosen results.
  • Author and Affiliation profiles are optimized for easier scanning, amongst other improvements.
  • Using the new visual style, in‐product user messages clarify the message context and appear consistently below the main navigation bar (below the page header).
Full details of the changes are available here.
