Information Retrieval [PDF ebook] 
SciFinder

Apoio

Sci Finder¯® is rapidly becoming a preferred means to
access scientific information in industry and universities
worldwide. It accesses databases which span the chemical,
engineering, life, medical, and physical sciences, including five
Chemical Abstract Service databases and the National Library of
Medicine bibliographic database Medline¯®. No other
single information access tool has such breadth of coverage for
scientific journal and patent documents.
Information Retrieval: Sci Finder¯®,
2nd Edition is an essential guide explaining how to
get the best out of Sci Finder. It discusses the 50+ options in
Sci Finder¯® including topic, bibliographic, and
chemical substance explore options, and post-processing options
Analyze, Refine, and Categorize. The book:
* Summarises the databases and explains how to take advantage of
the unique search and analysis options
* Explains selected algorithms behind the operation of
Sci Finder¯® and why it helps to understand them
* Discusses why it is important, and how to apply scientific
method to information retrieval
* Describes how to search for chemical structures and chemical
reactions
This second edition of Information Retrieval:
Sci Finder¯® has been fully revised and updated
to incorporate the latest functionality and content of
Sci Finder¯®. Written by a scientist for
scientists, this book will increase your research creativity
and productivity and is an essential resource for anyone needing
scientific information in academia or industry.
