My Bibliography (Products engine)

SciENcv’s Products selector pulls citations primarily from My Bibliography (and may also show an ORCID tab if you’ve linked ORCID).

What to do in My Bibliography

  • Add missing publications (PubMed search is easiest when available)
  • Add non-traditional products (patents, software, datasets, protocols) via manual entry or RIS upload
  • Check PMCID status for NIH-funded papers (institutional policy may require this)
  • If you have name variants, ensure papers are attributed correctly

Selecting Products in SciENcv (practical tips)

  • Prefer selecting from My Bibliography for consistency (and because it’s the NIH ecosystem of record).
  • If you see an ORCID tab, it can help surface items not yet in My Bibliography—add them to My Bibliography when possible to keep one authoritative library.
  • After selecting, re-order within each bucket so the strongest evidence is first.

If an item isn’t in My Bibliography (or ORCID), it can’t be selected as a “Product” in SciENcv.
