Research Impact Challenge Day 1: Track Your Citations With Google Scholar

How can Google Scholar help you track your citations? You’ve probably heard of and possibly used Google Scholar as a scholarly search engine. Users can search for journal articles, conference papers, theses and dissertations, books, and more across the disciplines. 

Authors can create profiles using their Google accounts (like your UNLV.edu email address!) and claim authorship on their works that are available in Google’s database.

You can also upload your previously published scholarship from Google Scholar to your ORCID account using Bibtex!

Complete today’s Research Impact Challenge and Bonus Challenge using Google Scholar. Visit the website for complete instructions and to register your participation. 

Need help completing today’s challenge? Drop in to visit Research Impact Librarian Christina Miskey from 11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. in the Research Consultation Room on the first floor of Lied Library. RSVP is not required, but you can add it to your calendar.
