+ 15 - 16 | § ¶SCOPUS available on trial basis during 2006

SCOPUS is available to NOAA as a trial subscription through December 1, 2006.
SCOPUS is a journal article database that includes features, such as citation tracker, that are similar to the Web of Science (citation search).  
Please make use of the database during the trial and send any feedback to your library.

Access to searching and other NOAA custom links are already established via your NOAA computer's IP address.  Personalized features such as alerts are available through free registration by clicking the 'Register' link at the top of the front page and submitting the form.  If you are not recognized as a NOAA user, please contact your library and be prepared to provide the IP address of your computer.

SCOPUS staff will be in Seattle in April to provide onsite training. More announcements about that training will be forthcoming.
