CSA Adds Fulltext Links to Three Services

Subscribers can link to electronic fulltext from Blackwell Synergy, Wiley InterScience, and Oxford University Press

BETHESDA, Maryland, USA (15 July 2004) -- Researchers using Internet Database Service (IDS) bibliographic databases from CSA can now link from their search results to electronic fulltext journals offered through Blackwell Synergy, Wiley InterScience, and Oxford University Press. With these additions, IDS subscribers can link search results to more than 10,000 electronic fulltext journals provided by more than thirty services.

“We remain committed to expediting the dissemination of information by making it as easy as possible for someone to link to research,” said Matt Dunie, president of CSA. “Thus we are delighted to now have linking available to these major sources of scholarly information.”

Dunie also stressed the important synergy of A&I databases with their electronic fulltext counterparts. “The best way for a researcher to guarantee complete, accurate, and immediate results is to do a search on one of our subject-specific databases, review the results, then link to the fulltext of an article.”

Blackwell Synergy is the online journals service from Blackwell Publishing. The service holds the content for most of Blackwell’s journals, the majority of which are published on behalf of international scholarly and professional societies.

Wiley InterScience provides Web-based access to publications from John Wiley & Sons, Inc. It features more than 1,000 journals, major reference works, online books, Current Protocols laboratory manuals, and databases as well as a suite of professional and management resources. The site was launched in 1997 and currently caters to over 12 million users in 87 countries.

Oxford University Press (OUP) is the world's largest and most international of university presses. It publishes more than 4,500 new books a year, has a presence in over fifty countries, and employs some 3,700 people worldwide. It has become familiar to millions through a diverse publishing program that includes scholarly works in all academic disciplines, bibles, music, school and college textbooks, children's books, materials for teaching English as a foreign language, business books, dictionaries and reference books, and journals. Oxford Journals publishes 184 journals covering a broad range of subject areas, two-thirds of which are published in collaboration with learned societies and other international organizations. The collection contains some of the world's most prestigious titles, including Nucleic Acids Research, JNCI (Journal of the National Cancer Institute), Brain, Human Reproduction, English Historical Review, and the Review of Financial Studies. A full list of the journals and subjects covered can be found at the Oxford Journals Web site (www.oupjournals.org).
