Cited Ref Search

The General Search searches for journal articles about a topic and/or written by a
particular author(s). On the other hand, the Cited Ref Search searches for journal articles and/or authors others have cited in their works. The Cited Ref Search also searches for books and/or authors of books whom others have cited in their works.

Cited Search Interface

The "Cited Author" field retrieves journal articles that cite the given author. When using this field, add another search field when possible. "Cited Author" is not specific, only allowing you to input "last name and first initial*". For example, many authors would fall under "smith j*", and the this search will retrieve all of them! You can limit the search to retrieve articles that cite an author's work from a particular source (journal or book) or year.
