The Internet has exploded as a source for the latest results of academic, scientific, and technical research, discovery, and innovation. To help you keep up with this explosion of information, your search of selected databases in CSA Illumina now retrieves Web sites relating to your area of interest, in addition to our bibliographic records.
The editors at CSA have researched academic, governmental, scientific and technical Web resources, selected the most useful portions of the Web sites and indexed them to compile our growing database of almost 300,000 Web resources. All links are checked monthly to ensure that every URL is current. We average a phenomenal rate of less th an 1% dead links.
How It Works
- Your search of Web resources retrieves citation records that include
the URL of sites selected and indexed by our editors.
- Click the URL to display a Web site within our customized interface.
- Our interface allows you to visit the sites retrieved by your search
one after the other.
- A 'frames' structure provides a display area for a remote Web site
and another for a scrolling list of the sites retrieved from our collection
of Web resources.
- Choose the title of the next site you wish to review, and it will
appear within the main display area.
- A third display area maintains a link back to your search results
making it easy for you to return to a set of records retrieved from
another database.
