BIOSIS Archive

New in 2006! BIOSIS Archive for Biological Abstracts and BIOSIS Previews delivers all the bibliographic records from 49 Biological Abstracts print volumes 1926 to 1968. It consists of 1.8 million records relevant to working biologists, from journals, patents, conference reports and books, and in fully indexed and searchable form. The original scientist abstractors and editors focused on selecting the most relevant international items in life sciences, and often wrote extensive abstracts and enhanced titles that had added indexing terms as search aids. Modern indexing terms and search functions have been added to further ease search.
