Scopus announced today that it has signed strategic content deals with a string of publishers and societies including Springer, the Nature Publishing Group, the American Physical Society, and the American Institute of Physics. The decision to add more abstracts dating back to volume 1, issue 1 to all Scopus users at no extra charge, is based on feedback received through end user research programs and the Scopus Content Selection & Advisory Board. Both groups strongly recommend that bibliographic information including abstracts, rather than offering backfiles containing just the references, will significantly strengthen Scopus' content, especially in subject areas where older materials are used more regularly. As a result, Scopus will focus on adding abstracts in subject areas such as Physics, Chemistry, and Social Sciences.
