Scopus coverage history
Scopus indexed CIT Plus for 11 years, between 2001 and 2011. Coverage ended in 2011, 15 years ago, and Scopus now lists the title as inactive.
Is it still publishing? OpenAlex lists 1,849 works and 140 citations for the title. OpenAlex attributes papers to this title as late as 2025, 14 years after Scopus coverage ended in 2011. That may reflect a changed ISSN or merged records rather than continued publishing, so confirm the journal's current status directly before submitting.
