The TSU Library’s webpage is an online database of books, and other formats. Click on the Online Catalog and search by author, title, subject, keyword or call number. The online database for journals is a tool to look for articles relevant to your research. A journal database search will provide citations (the source of the article), abstracts (brief descriptions of the article’s content) or full text articles (the article in its entirety). Full-text articles can be printed or saved on a disk. If the article is unavailable in full-text online, you may search to see if the library subscribes to the print periodical. TSU Library subscribes to a variety of online databases, many of which are subject specific. These databases are available on and off campus. They may be accessed through the library webpage by clicking on Databases or Databases by Subject at: http://www.tnstate.edu/library/ Interlibrary Loan (ILL) is a cooperative service which makes materials available to patrons which are not in our collection.

  • Electronic Resources Management: Maintenance and Enhancements
    Electronic Resources Management at Egan Library: Maintenance and Enhancements I .Steps in UAS Library E-Resource Management: Selection, Access, and Promotion Selection • Databases: The library selects new databases based on faculty suggestions and statewide cooperative opportunities. The majority of new databases added in the past ten years have been added as a result of expansions to the statewide SLED Digital Pipeline. A UAS Librarian serves on the Statewide Database Committee and participates in decisions about which databases will be added to SLED. UAS Librarians trial and review databases up for consideration. Faculty are notified about trials whenever possible and faculty input is requested and considered. UAS Library also adds new databases independently as a result of faculty requests and librarian selection. In the last year, two databases, Dieselnet and MRI+ Internet Reporter, were added after faculty recommendations. In these cases, the faculty members’ departments shared the cost of subscriptions. The library provides all the maintenance and administration for the database subscriptions. • E-Journals: The library conducts annual reviews of electronic and print periodical subscriptions. As publishers increasingly move to print plus online models, the library has been able to provide electronic access to more titles for no or little additional cost over the print. Some titles supporting distance programs are selected as online only when price savings are significant. Fifty percent of direct library subscriptions include online access. Seventy-five percent of active subscriptions are available online via subscription or as part of a database. • Monographs: The library receives the vast majority of its e-book titles via the Ebrary Academic Complete subscription.

However, the inclusion requirements of publications in the bibliographic databases are heterogeneous even on the technical side. This survey paper aims in shedding light on the various data formats, protocols and technical requirements of getting indexed by widely used bibliographic databases in the area of computer science and provides hints for maximal database inclusion. Furthermore, we point out the possibilities to utilize the data of bibliographic databases, and describes some personal and institutional research repository systems with special regard to the support of inclusion in bibliographic databases. TYPE OF PAPER AND KEYWORDS Research review: Bibliographic Database, Repository, Digital Library, Publishing 1 MOTIVATION collections of bibliographic databases, which provide links to full text pdfs of articles and/or to articles’ pages Scholarly bibliographic databases collect information of the publishers.

  • Web of Science (Wos) and Scopus: the Titans of Bibliographic Information in Today's Academic World
    publications Review Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus: The Titans of Bibliographic Information in Today’s Academic World Raminta Pranckute˙ Scientific Information Department, Library, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Sauletekio˙ Ave. 14, LT-10223 Vilnius, Lithuania; [email protected] Abstract: Nowadays, the importance of bibliographic databases (DBs) has increased enormously, as they are the main providers of publication metadata and bibliometric indicators universally used both for research assessment practices and for performing daily tasks. Because the reliability of these tasks firstly depends on the data source, all users of the DBs should be able to choose the most suitable one. Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus are the two main bibliographic DBs. The comprehensive evaluation of the DBs’ coverage is practically impossible without extensive bibliometric analyses or literature reviews, but most DBs users do not have bibliometric competence and/or are not willing to invest additional time for such evaluations. Apart from that, the convenience of the DB’s interface, performance, provided impact indicators and additional tools may also influence the users’ choice. The main goal of this work is to provide all of the potential users with an all-inclusive description of the two main bibliographic DBs by gathering the findings that are presented in the most recent literature and information provided by the owners of the DBs at one place. This overview should aid all stakeholders employing publication and citation data in selecting the most suitable DB. Keywords: WoS; Scopus; bibliographic databases; comparison; content coverage; evaluation; citation impact indicators Citation: Pranckute,˙ R. Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus: The Titans 1.

  • Google Scholar August 2005 E
    UC Libraries Use of Google Scholar August 2005 E. Meltzer 8/10/05 On June 22, 2005, the CDL requested information from the campuses about librarian and library staff use of Google Scholar in their own work and at public service desks. Eight of ten campuses responded with a wealth of information about the creative ways in which the libraries use Google Scholar, as well as with their objections to its use. Immediately below is an overall summary of responses, followed by a document containing all the detailed responses received. At the end of the second section is a report from UCLA detailing how the UCLA library integrates and positions Google Scholar along with the rest of their electronic resources. The replies indicate a core of respondents do not use Google Scholar at all. Others use it rarely, instead strongly preferring licensed article databases purchased by the libraries for use in specific disciplines. Some are reluctant to use it because they are unsure of what it actually covers. Among those who do use Google Scholar, they value it as a way of getting at older, more obscure, interdisciplinary, and difficult to locate materials quickly and simply. It is open access and sometimes easier to use than traditional resources. It provides another point of entry to the world of scholarship. At public service desks, it is used as an entrée into the use of OpenURL or licensed resources, and as an option for non-UC affiliated users. Some campuses are beginning to adopt Google Scholar in their teaching. Whether one is “for” or “against” Google Scholar, it is clearly a topic of lively and passionate dialogue within the University of California libraries.
