Google Scholar Citations Profiles

GS is a free very large bibliographic database that it is especially useful for bibliometric purposes as it provides the number (and lists them) of citations received by the items included. Its current size is over 160 million unique documents, many of them with links to openly available full-text versions). This is almost three times the current coverage of the paywalled competitors like WoS/Thomson or Scopus/Elsevier.

GS Citations is a tool for setting up author profiles of individuals and their publications as covered by GS. There are many advantages in generating your own profile using GSC. It is really very easy to use as you only need a Google account to start collecting your publications and the associated metrics. The system is very powerful and it guides you in every step offering candidate publications (with a very low error rate) and the possibility of merging, delete or adding records.

How to set up your own profile

Please, follow the following advices and take into account the warnings about nasty practices:

Make the profile public!
Delete duplicate old profiles. Entries marked # means there are other profiles for the same author.
Identify yourself with your standard signature name (not inverse)
Provide information about your affiliation, including institution name, city and country
Use an institutional email account
Use keywords in English (about 5) for allowing comparisons with international colleagues
Preferably, neither general terms (physics, chemistry, medicine) nor very specific ones
