Presentation Transcript

  1. Chemical Structure Summaries • Users told us that: • When starting a literature search it is difficult to find factual information on compounds/reactions • When starting a structure search it is difficult to find a distinct set of relevant articles • Therefore we collaborated with sister company MDL to bridge the gap • We have built chemical structure summaries for records common to both Scopus and Beilstein • Just over 500,000 records are a match

  2. Finding Related Compounds

  3. Finding Related Reactions

  4. Finding Other Relevant Documents Or a user can decide to go back to the literature (Scopus) and view all documents in Scopus with this compound.

  5. Chemical Structure Summaries • This feature is available if you have licensed Scopus AND Beilstein from MDL on either: • Crossfire Commander, or, • DiscoveryGate • No additional charge for the summaries that link the systems • Links are activated automatically with no action required by you or the user • Users move between the services without having to enter a different password

  6. What Do Librarians Say? • “It's important to have a product that does one thing very well, not a product that does everything a little bit. Let Scopus focus on the citations, and let Crossfire do the structure searching, and create handover points. It is also important that the user knows where s/he is at any time.”

  7. What Do Users Say? • “Normally these are separate steps, supported by separate systems” • “Useful to see what a paper describes without going through the text” • “Excellent combination of reading a paper and thinking about synthesis”
