1 Introduction
1.1 Aim, scope and focus of the study

Aim

1.1.1 The overarching aim of the report is to explore and suggest practical directions and actions to move toward more cost-effective creation, dissemination and exploitation of citation data in the context of current and potential future usage scenarios. A further aim is to propose the roles that Jisc and others might play in this system in future.

Scope and focus

1.1.2 The general scope of this work is the creation and exploitation of citation data derived from peer reviewed academic research articles. However, the citation of datasets is specifically excluded. While  bibliographic metadata associated with the referencing and referenced outputs is clearly relevant, it is  not the focus of the work. Approaches to exploitation of citation data are also not the focus of the review, except in as much that this might increase or change the demand for different types of citation data.
