摘要
We present a large-scale comparison of four multidisciplinary bibliographic data sources: Web of Science, Scopus, Dimensions, and Crossref. Scopus is compared in a pairwise manner with each of the other data sources. We first analyze differences between the data sources in the coverage of documents. We then study differences in the completeness and accuracy of citation links. Based on our analysis, we discuss strengths and weaknesses of the different data sources.
