Once a project has a few papers, Discover can use them to find more like them. It can also turn your project's keywords into ready-made searches.

  1. Opening Discover papers from a project's library

    Step 1Open Discover from your project

    Open your project's Library lens and choose Discover papers in the toolbar.

  2. The Find similar papers button

    Step 2Find similar papers

    Under Papers like the ones in this project, choose Find similar papers.

    The results say how many papers were found and how many of your project's papers they are based on. Papers you already have are marked In your library.

    If CurTask says the paper database it asks is busy, try again in a minute, or search by topic in the meantime. If it says to add a few papers with a DOI first, add some papers to the project (or add their DOIs on each paper's Metadata tab), then try again.

  3. Searching with one of the project's keywords

    Step 3Or search from your keywords

    Under the search box, From your keywords offers searches made from your project's keywords. Choose one to run it. See Project keywords.

  4. Ticking a paper, with Add to this project too ticked

    Step 4Import the ones you want

    Tick the papers you want. In the Import panel, keep Add to this project too ticked, then choose Import with the number of papers. Importing uses no credits.
