This extension only works for Scopus authenticated users. The Scopus download manager will not do anything for unauthenticated users.
Scopus Document Download Manager is a free browser extension enabling download functionality in Scopus, as well as a Quick Document Search function for Scopus authenticated users. To search, authenticated users can simply click on the browser extension icon to display the search form.
This extension saves authenticated users the hassle of visiting individual publisher web sites to download documents one by one. Instead, it seamlessly connects to publisher websites to download full text PDFs directly from your browser without needing to configure and maintain a list of entitlements.
How do you use this extension in Scopus?
1) From the document search results or document list pages, select one or several documents and click on Download button
or
2) From a Scopus abstract record page, click on Download button
When successfully downloaded, your PDF document(s) will be saved to your browser Downloads folder. In the event that the extension fails at retrieving the PDF (e.g. you are not entitled to the full text or the download is prevented by the publisher web site) the Document Download Manager will provide a link to the publisher web site so you can easily open the page and try to download the full text manually.
I am not getting. Earlier it was 30 days full sciencedirect access to the reviewers but it is not working now days. can anyone tell how it will work please.
So terrible should be banned from web store.
Imbarazzante
I cant believe they make you download this…. I hate Scopus, after this class I will never use this database again.
Does not work
Extremely disappointed that I have to allow Elsevier to read and change all my data in order to download PDFs from SCOPUS. This is not a requirement to download PDFs from competitors, completely ridiculous that SCOPUS requires it and certainly leaves the impression that Elsevier doesn’t take data privacy seriously.
ridiculous to force an extension
It is a scandal. I cannot download any article from scopus anymore, also those “open access” type, even though I have institutional access, because the page forces me to use the extension, which needs to be linked to google account (it doesn’t accept any other e-mail address). How many institutions are there tha have instutitional google accounts for their emploees? It is ridiculous!
Why does this even need a plugin
Scopus website required the app for downloading a specific pdf file.
After installing the app, it said “PDF not available”. Just annoying!
such a nuisance
it simply does not work
at least state if the paper can be downloaded, before needing to download the extension
Me encanta, Mil gracias
This idea sucks. just a waste of time
Pointless… Doesn’t even work..
Don’t work…
Completely ridiculous that you would need a browser extension to download journal articles. Don’t download this, find your papers elsewhere, thanks for wasting my time Scopus.
This is objectively spyware and there is absolutely no reason for this to exist.
why do I need this to download files from scopus?
No deja visualizar ningún artículo pese a todos los paso que pide
not working
Love it. Super easy to use. Search and download is very intuitive.
Developer explained why it couldn’t be done via web application. Don’t understand why using an extension is so much harder for some people. Don’t know where all the hate is coming from.
Keep up the good work!
I downloaded this and try to get the article i want. Then it told me that this article can’t be downloaded. Why not tell me this before i download this goddamn extension!
Pointless
