Searching full-text-articles:

If you need to search for words beyond title/abstract/index terms, e.g. names of methods, organisms, chemicals - the are several possiblitites:

Google Scholar - if you don't get immediate access to the full paper, it will usually be available through our E-journals database

Set-up for exporting references to Refworks (one reference at a time): Link to Google Scholar preferences. Mark (bottom of page: Bibliography Manager + Show links to import citations into RefWorks + [Save preferences].
Most references found in Google Scholar will now carry a "Import into RefWorks" link. Google Scholar always opens RefWorks in "Edit mode", so you may change and add information if needed: e.g. Document types. For most references to journal papers, a better-quality reference with abstract, author adresses (incl. e-mail), subject terms a.o. can usually be found in general bibliographies

SCIRUS - also cover journals from Elseviers ScienceDirect (not covered by Google Scholar)


Other bibliographies - available through DIALOG:

Biological Abstracts, 1926- (Bluesheet: file 5) , CAB Abstracts, 1972- (Bluesheet: file 50)

Merck Index .. ???
