Cited-Article Links Help Users 'Follow the Research'
Melville, New York, March 21, 2007 - The American Institute
of
Physics is pleased to announce the release today of
enhancements
to its digital backfiles. For each of the AIP journals
listed
below, hyperlinked references have been added to the
bibliographic headers for the years 1991-1998. This will
allow
users to click on references and follow links to the cited
articles, a function already available for AIP's 'born
digital'
content from 1999 to the present.
"This is only the first phase of our project to build
links to
and from AIP's older legacy content," said Paul
DeCillis, manager
of online services. "We plan to have linkable
references to cited
articles for all AIP journal content back to 1930 and 1931,
when
AIP began publishing Review of Scientific Instruments and
Journal
of Applied Physics, respectively. This older content is
remarkably well-used, and researchers will now benefit from
easy-to-use links to cited research papers."
AIP journals, hosted on Scitation (www.scitation.org), also
provide links to articles that cite the AIP articles.
Together,
these forward and backward links - to both cited and citing
articles - offer rich pathways through the research
literature
for any user.
Each AIP journal has been digitized back to its first
volume, and
backfiles older than five years are available online to
subscribers for a small fee in addition to the regular
subscription price. All AIP journals include at least a
five-year
backfile with current subscriptions (the journal Chaos, a
quarterly, includes all published issues back to 1991 with
current subscriptions).
The following journals now have enhanced references for all
content published from 1991 through 1998:
Applied Physics Letters http://apl.aip.org
Chaos:
An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science http://chaos.aip.org
Journal of Applied Physics http://jap.aip.org
The Journal of Chemical Physics http://jcp.aip.org
Journal of Mathematical Physics http://jmp.aip.org
Physics of Fluids http://pof.aip.org
Physics of Plasmas http://pop.aip.org
Review of Scientific Instruments http://rsi.aip.org
To view these enhanced abstracts, simply follow the links
above.
Also, we'd be pleased to show them to you in person at the
ACRL
Conference, March 29-31, in Baltimore. We invite you to
visit us
at booth #1046.
