NEW DATABASE PRODUCTS: SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND MEDICINE (ISSUE 9)

摘要

This is the ninth article on science, technology and medicine (STM) databases in a continuing series of articles summarising and commenting on new database products. Two companion articles will appear in the next two issues of this journal — one covering social sciences, humanities, news and general (SSH) (Online & CDROM Review, vol. 21, no. 2) and the other covering business and law (BSL) (Online & CDROM Review, vol. 21, no. 3). These articles are based on the newly appearing database products in the Gale Directory of Databases.' The Gale Directory of Databases (GDD) was created in January 1993 by merging Computer-Readable Databases: A Directory and Data Sourcebook (CRD) together with the Directory of Online Databases (DOD) and the Directory of Portable Databases (DPD).
