<span style="color: #505050; font-family: georgia, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18.4px;">Is your article hiding among millions of others, difficult to find and not being read as a result? If it is, you’re not alone; great research can go relatively unnoticed if it’s not highlighted and indexed in the right way.</span></span><br />

Scholar Metrics provide an easy way for authors to quickly gauge the visibility and influence of recent articles in scholarly publications. GS is releasing the <a href="http://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=top_venues" target="_blank">2017 version of Scholar Metrics</a>. This release covers articles published in 2012–2016 and includes citations from all articles that were indexed in Google Scholar as of June 2017.<br />
<br />
To get started, you can browse the <a href="http://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=top_venues&hl=en" target="_blank">top 100 publications in several languages</a>, ordered by their five-year h-index and h-median metrics. To see which articles in a publication were cited the most and who cited them, click on its h-index number to view the articles as well as the citations underlying the metrics.<br />
<br />
You can also explore publications in research areas of your interest. To browse publications in a broad area of research, select one of the areas in the left column. <span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">For
example: Top publications for <a href="https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=top_venues&hl=fr&vq=bus_finance" target="_blank"><span style="color: #134f5c;">FINANCE category</span></a>.</span><br />

The 2015 release, with 2014 citation data for literature within the sciences and social sciences, features 11,149 journal listings in 237 disciplines; 82 countries are represented. A total of 272 journals received their first JIF; 53 percent of journals saw an increase in JIF from last year and 43 percent saw a decrease.
