Web of Science Now Accessible Back to 1955!
Web of Science, the online version of Science Citation Index, is now available from the UH Libraries back to 1955. This extended subscription includes cited and citing references to articles published from 1955 to the present.
Web of Science is part of the ISI Web of Knowledge suite of tools, which also includes Journal Citation Reports and a version of MEDLINE. MEDLINE results link to citing articles in Web of Science. Web of Science results link to records in Journal Citation Reports.
Welcome to the UH Libraries’ Biology/Biochemistry Blog!
Dear all,
Welcome to the UH Libraries’ Biology/Biochemistry Blog! Ideas for the blog’s initial content have come from the faculty of the Department of Biology and Biochemistry at the University of Houston. The type of entries may change, depending on usage and feedback, and new blogs for graduate students and undergraduates may also result. Here are the types of entries you should expect to see for now:
- Recently Published Journal Articles in Relevant Research Areas
- New Online Journal Subscriptions Through the UH Libraries
- New Books at the UH Libraries
- Database Descriptions (Including Topics Covered and Advanced Searching)
- Tools for Tracking Citations
- Placing Items on Reserve at the UH Libraries
- Requesting a Class at the UH Libraries
- How to Suggest a Library Purchase
- Interlibrary Loan
- Scholarly Communication (Open Access Publishing, Posting Your Own Articles to the Web, etc.)
- The HAM-TMC (Medical Center) Library Collection
Please help me make this a useful resource for you by posting comments to the blog or e-mailing feedback to me.
Sincerely,
Rob Wright, Biology Librarian, UH Libraries, rwright@uh.edu
