:The Sciences @ IUP Libraries

The IUP Libraries now offers the ability to search through multiple databases offered by CAS (Chemical Abstracts Services), including Chemical Abstracts, using the SciFinder Scholar (SFS) software. Here’s a sample of what’s available via SFS:

• More than 13 million single- and multi-step reactions
• More than 1 billion predicted and experimental properties
• The CAS REGISTRY^SM database – the original source and final authority for CAS Registry Numbers – updated daily
• All patent records, meeting CAS selection criteria, from 9 of the major patent offices are available online within 2 days of the patents’ issuance
• Sequences combined from CAS and GenBank databases, which are indexed and linked to scientific journal and patent literature
• Direct linking from SciFinder Scholar to IUP’s e-journal collection
