Academic institutions face significant challenges in educating students and their research communities in an era of unreliable information. While GenAI tools offer increased speed, personalization, and simplification of complex ideas, students may struggle to understand the data these tools use and assess the trustworthiness of their responses. To thrive in a transformed job market, students must learn how to assess the authority and accuracy of information while developing essential GenAI skills. With 58% of students reporting that they do not feel AI-ready*, highlighting a significant opportunity for institutions to better prepare them for future success.

Scopus and Scopus AI can help enhance teaching and learning outcomes

Using Scopus and Scopus AI together can significantly enhance students' information literacy and GenAI literacy skills, supporting them in making informed, critical decisions with confidence in the data they use. By leveraging Scopus's trusted dataset, Scopus AI aims to support users in navigating challenging information landscapes and tackle complex problems, helping to ensure that their discoveries are grounded in reliable sources.

Sharpen scholarship skills

As a leading library resource, Scopus enhances information literacy by equipping users to conduct in-depth research, evaluate scholarly sources and develop critical thinking skills to identify trustworthy content, supported by curated and comprehensive research information from over 7,000 publishers.

Use Scopus to demonstrate to students and instructors how to:

Boost information literacy with clear metrics and indicators that identify trusted sources.
Access extensive cross-disciplinary content anytime, anywhere, on any device.
Enhance workflows with embedded resources that complement other databases.
Understand scholarly conversations through reference lists and cited articles.
Keep curricula current with alerts for the latest publications and time-saving tools like saved searches and lists.

"... having a database as inclusive and interdisciplinary as Scopus is invaluable to us."
