What are INDEXES & ABSTRACTS?
Indexes and abstracts can be used to locate articles on a specific
topic.
- Indexes provide citations to articles. A citation for an
article includes the full title of the article, the title of the
journal, book or conference proceeding where the article appears,
the author(s), the date published, and the pagination.
- Abstracts include a summary of the article.
Indexes and abstracts can be searched by AUTHOR, SUBJECT or KEYWORD.
The Science, Industry and Business Library (SIBL) subscribes to print and electronic indexes.
The electronic version of an index is usually more up-todate. If you
are doing comprehensive research, always check the date coverage of
an index, since the electronic equivalents of print indexes do not
always cover the same time period.
Where to locate PRINT & ELECTRONIC
indexes:
Electronic Indexes:
Electronic indexes are often called databases. For more information
about databases and how to locate them go to the following Web page:
Science & Technology Databases Available at SIBL
Print Indexes:
Print indexes (paper format) can be found in the open-shelf reference
collection located on the lower level of SIBL. The following is a list
of print indexes with their call numbers. When an electronic version
of a print index is also available, the database title is listed. Please
check the CATNYP catalog for
date coverage.
