Wiser Science this term:  Web of Science: Citation searching  Scopus  Medline for Medicine  Inspec for Physics/Engineering  CAB abstracts for Environmental Research  Compendex for Engineering  Biological Abstracts for Life sciences Research  SciFinder Scholar for Chemistry and Material Science Mondays, 12:30 pm OUCS

What will these sessions cover? Database content Database content Available platforms Available platforms Searching Searching Locating full text Locating full text Setting up alerts Setting up alerts Saving references Saving references Organising references through RefWorks Organising references through RefWorks

Scopus: types of publications  Open access journals  Trade publications  Journals  Conferences  Patents million records from 4 Patent Offices  Book series  Web resources  Many links to full text

Subject Coverage Life Sciences 3,400 titles Health Sciences5,300 titles Physical Sciences 5,500 titles Social Sciences 2,800 titles

Content   Publisher-submitted records   Medline records   Content from other Elsevier databases*: Embase 1970-Compendex Geobase   Content coverage etc. at

Functionality  Searching  Limits  Sorting results  Citation searching  Search History  Alerts  Output

Strengths  User friendly, intuitive  Good for free-text, keyword searching  Good for any science topic  Simultaneous web and patent searches  Citation searching (back to 1996)  Alerts, to keep you up to date with research  Many links to full text  Regular updates/improvements  Good help pages and online support

Weaknesses  No controlled vocabulary/ subject heading searching  Citation searching more comprehensive in Web of Knowledge  Clinical queries - use Medline / PubMed

Other features  Also searches the web via SCIRUS, Elsevier’s science search engine 

Why use Scopus?  Scholarly, interdisciplinary content  Weekly or daily updates  Complex searching and refining results  Searches databases and the web simultaneously  Search history can be viewed  Current awareness alerts can be set up  Easy to set up bibliography of results

Sample search: Climate change and fisheries

Features for demonstration  Searching  Limits  Web results  Database results  Sorting  Link to article (TOUR)  Save search as Alert  Citations  Output

Topics you can try…  What are the ethical implications of face transplants?  How does solar power help with the problem of global warming?  How is airplane safety affected by metal fatigue?
