Scopus, one of the most extensive academic databases we subscribe to, will be undergoing limited maintenance on September 21 resulting in minimal interruption to its services.

The maintenance is due to take place between 17.00 and 19.00 (British Summer Time).

During this period, the Scopus database will be available in read-only mode, meaning that users will still be able to conduct searches for high-quality scholarly publications, but they will not be able to use some of the more advanced features available to those who have created personal Scopus accounts, such as:

• Saving or editing search queries
• Saving or editing an alert
• Creating or modifying lists of materials
• Changing user configurations

While this necessary work should cause minimal disruption we apologise for any inconvenience caused.
