How to Mine for Citations using Google Scholar:
Google Scholar makes it very easy to 'forward' citation mine. This means you can look for papers that have cited your paper of interest, so you are moving forward in time, rather than looking backward at the references cited in the same paper.
How to Mine for Citations using Google Scholar:
1. First, find the paper of interest in Google Scholar. If you type the entire title into the search bar, that will pull up the paper of interest.
2. A 'Cited by' number will be below the entry.
3. If you click on the 'Cited by' number, it will open all of the papers that Google Scholar found that cited your paper of interest.
4. Please be aware, this may not be a complete list. There may be research papers that have been missed.
Many of the Library Databases also have a way to forward citation mine. Here are some examples:
ACM: If you open the article and click on the citations, a list with links to papers will appear.
Science Direct: Open the article and scroll to the bottom. Articles citing the article chosen will be listed with links.
PubMed: Open the article, and there is an option titled "Cited by" on the right-hand side. If you click on it, a list of the papers citing the one you have open will appear.
