RSC Chemical Articles Repository now in beta

The new RSC Chemical Sciences Article Repository has been released in beta. Try it for yourself here: http://www.rsc.org/Chemical-Sciences-Repository/articles/

According to the press release by RSC, researchers will be able to:

  • Deposit and share their research – it’s a simple three step process to search for a publication, review it and confirm if for deposit
  • Network and collaborate – set up a profile to enhance their visibility within the research community, connecting effectively with other researchers online
  • Measure the impact of their research – tracking the diverse impact their articles have via citations, bookmarks, downloads, tweets, and other vehicles…
  • Make their research discoverable – the user-friendly interface ensures searching and browsing for information is easy
  • Benefit from the intuitive interface and search functions – all designed with the chemist in mind, from structure searchability to subject coverage

Please add your comments to share your impressions of RSC’s newest venture.

Chemistry collection moved offsite for mold remediation

All of the unique titles from the chemistry collection were boxed and removed from the chemistry library today. A mold remediation specialist has taken them for treatment, after which they will be returned to the Libraries’ annex on Busch campus. Once the books are back, which should be by the Spring semester, they will be either relocated to the Library of Science and Medicine, or made available for borrowing from the annex. As always, article delivery will be an option for journal articles which are print only, and Inter-Library Loan will continue to be available when we do not own an item.

Please call or e-mail if you have any questions, or need help obtaining a book or article.
