Researchers are frequently asked to demonstrate the impact of their work. Traditionally, this has meant providing the number publications, and the number of citations that those publications have received. This has historically been expressed as an author's H-Index, so named for its creator, J.E. Hirsch.

Citation Reports
Multiple databases and programs allow an author to collect a list of their publications indexed in the database and the citations made to those publications automatically. At SDSU, you can create these citation reports through Web of Science, Google Scholar, or the Publish or Perish software.
