SciFinder
AS of August 31, 2009, UCHC and Uconn Storrs libraries have moved our online subscription access to SciFinder Scholar from a client based format to the web access format. This means that users will no longer have to download the SciFinder Scholar client to their desktops and it still has contains all the same material.
New features include print reference, substance, and reaction answers, save answers to the CAS server, and export answers to your desktop or another file location. A new feature, SciFinder's Keep Me Posted feature lets you quickly and easily set up alerts for references or substances of interest. Whenever the Create Keep Me Posted icon in the upper left of the SciFinder window is active, you can set up an alert based on the initial query for the current Explore task or on an answer set generated using a Refine operation.
Users will need to register for a personal username and password in order to use the web version. Registration requires a valid UCHC or UConn email address.
Once is registration complete, login to access SciFinder.
For more information, contact the library.
