3. Chemical Abstracts & SciFinder  Started as Indexing and Abstracting service in 1907  Earlier known as Chemical Abstracts (CA) in its print version  An ideal example for Library Science students and professionals to study evolution of CA to current version SciFinder.

4. Librarian Support  Many Libraries with print CA have taken active role in helping users in searching various indexes of CA and helped them to locate right information quickly.  This support and training still needed for SciFinder

5. Chemical Abstracts Service Why SciFinder (CA) is different?  CA needs more than 600 scientists with PhDs with specialization in various fields to complete indexing

6. Why professional indexing is needed?  Try and search uses of below substance in full-text journals. (1,2 diphenyl guanidine)
