What is Scite?

How do you know if the research paper you just found is trustworthy? In a world of rapidly evolving science, it's difficult to know if a study's findings have been supported, challenged, or even retracted by the scientific community. Manually checking every citation would take weeks! What if you could see a "report card" for any article in just a few seconds?

Welcome back to Webrarian! In this quick 7-minute episode, we explore the revolutionary tool that gives you research confidence: Scite (S-C-I-T-E).

Discover how Scite goes beyond simple citation counts to show you the context of how a paper is being discussed. We'll break down its simple but powerful classification system: Supporting, Mentioning, and Contrasting citations. Learn how this "fact-checker for science" can help you instantly see if a study's claims have been verified or disputed by subsequent research.

Join us to find out how Scite's browser extension can help you build your projects on solid ground, save incredible amounts of time on verification, and quickly understand the critical conversations happening in your field. This is the tool you need to research smarter, not just harder.
