 Gale - Gale 2002 - Free Resources - Reference Reviews - Archives   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Scopus coverage goes back to the early 1960s (with 265 records before 1960), but it really kicks in with a substantial number of records from 1965 and steadily rises for the past 40 years, with the exception of dips between 1986 and 1988 and again between 1991 and 1992.
Scopus retroactively adds the cited references to the records imported from its own set of abstracting/indexing databases and presumably extracts cited references from the well-structured digital archive of more than six million articles from the journals of Elsevier and its imprints, as well as from the digital records of its partner publishers.
Scopus additionally includes all of the authors (within some limits), the title of the journal article or the conference paper, and the closing page (which helps in gauging how long the paper is).

 Scopus [Review]
Scopus, a product of Elsevier Publishing Co., was commercially launched in November 2004 as "the world's largest abstract and indexing database," reputedly spanning the full spectrum of science-technology-medicine (STM) literature plus more limited coverage of the social sciences.
Scopus is marketed as an interdisciplinary STM database and despite the limitations and qualifications associated with this claim, as detailed in earlier sections, that places it squarely in competition with Web of Science, the trail blazer in this area and which has had the field to itself until now.
Scopus is a promising addition to the stable of workhorse databases now available to researchers in the STM subject categories, and its interdisciplinary content coupled with citation searching capability inevitably sets it up as a direct rival to Web of Science.
