Author Finder

  • Use the Author Finder search to help you narrow down cited articles by a particular author.
     
  • Author Finder displays the authors institution and allows you to view articles quickly, and combine more then one listing into a search result
     
  • This allows you to quickly find the work of an author that may use name variants (e.g. K Smith, Kristy Smith or Kristine Smith), as well as those who have multiple affiliations
