Excluding Self-Citations from a Cited Reference Search

If you want to exclude self-citations from a cited reference search:

Perform the cited reference search as you normally would by expanding on the author's name in the cited reference field.

e cr={last name} {space} {first initial}

Create a set that contains all the appropriate E numbers.
NOT out the records that contain the same author's name within the AU field.
```
s s1 not au={last name} {space} {first initial?}
```

Example:

?b34,434
