Dear Colleague
My community is interested in access to Chemical Abstract database (as so far, we
were subscribed to printed version) and in possible purchasing of CA for wider
academic and scientific community, but the information I find about the database
are very poor.. I am curious whether there is any client-server software available
for searching through CA database (preferably for Unix server)?
Is it possible to purchase the Chemical Abstract from any other vendor than
American Chemical Society? I've noticed that neither Ovid Technologies nor
other vendors don't offer this database in their catalogues.
I can recall that on the Online 96 Conference in London I have seen some very
good software for CA data searching, but I've forgotten the name of it's
manufacturer.
I would like to ask all the libraries, which have some experience in working with
Chemical Abstract in network neighbourhood, especially on Unix servers, to
share their experiences with me.
Thank you in advance
