Methods for linking publications to the goals

SLU uses database searches to identify scientific publications that can be linked to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The searches are done in Web of Science and Scopus, and library experts review the results to ensure that they are relevant.

If you are an SLU employee, you can also suggest which goals a publication is linked to when you are logged in to SLUpub.
