Basic Databases

new! Energy Citation Databases. Includes over 140,000 full text documents on chemistry, physics, engineering, climatalogy, and mathematics.

Academic Search Complete from EBSCOhost
A scholarly, multi-disciplinary database that searches a total of 10,900 publications including 4,400 peer-reviewed journals. Full text is provided for 5,300 journals.

Omnifile Full Text Mega Edition from WilsonWeb
Provides indexing, abstracts and selected full text for over 3,000 core journals from many disciplines, including general and applied sciences. Select Applied Science & Technology from the Subject Area drop down menu. Full text coverage begins in January 1995. To narrow your search, try using just the General Science Full Text component of Omnifile.

Advanced or Discipline-Specific Databases

new! Web of Science from ISI
In addition to covering over 22,000 journals, ISI's Web of Science covers conference proceedings, patents, and scholarly web content. Virtually all scientific fields of study are included. Web of Science contains the Science Citation Index, Social Sciences Citation Index, and the Arts & Humanities Citation Index and is designed to make it easy for you to determine the authors, institutions and journals most critical to a particular question or area of study by pursuing relevant citations. It also provides full text links to articles in over 10,000 journals.

Technology Databases from Cambridge Scientific from CSA
The following are among a set of 9 databases which can searched individually or in combination. If more than one is selected, results will be displayed for each database and duplicate records will not be eliminated. No full text.
