The 2022 CWTS Summer School provided a thorough introduction to scientometrics. First, we defined scientometrics. We then discussed major scientometric data sources, their strengths and limitations, including Web of Science, Scopus, and Dimensions as well as explored cutting edge tools available to scientometricians, including Elsevier’s International Center for the Study of Research Lab (ICSR) and Dimensions on Google Big Query.
