- Inspec
Produced by the Institution of Electrical Engineers ( IEE ), the database provides access to the world's scientific literature in electrical engineering, electronics,
physics, control engineering, information technology, communications, computers, and manufacturing and production engineering. It indexes journals, conference preceedings,
and books.

- Journal Citation Reports
Evaluate and compare journals in the sciences and social sciences using citation data drawn from over 7,500 scholarly and technical journals.
JCR is related to Web of Science and is based on similar data. Use JCR to find the most frequently cited journals in a field and/or a journal's
impact factor, among other information.

- NTIS
The National Technical Information Service (NTIS) provides a database of government-funded scientific, technical, engineering, and business related
information. Over 350 subject areas from over 200 federal agencies are covered. Although the NTIS offers documents for sale, many are available at
K-State Libraries. Search the library catalog for any titles found in the NTIS before purchasing.
Coverage: 1990- Access: unlimited
- Web of Science info for new users
Essentially an online version of the three traditional Citation Indexes: Science, Social Sciences, and Arts and Humanities. In addition to searching by keyword, subject,
author, etc. for articles in over 8,000 journals, one can do a "cited reference" search, in other words, it's possible to see how frequently and
where an article has been cited. Web of Science is one of the most powerful indexes available, but also relatively difficult to use. There is
extensive help , however. Also an excellent source for finding book reviews; to do so, limit the search to document type book review (found near the bottom of the screen).
Coverage: Science 1945-; Social Sciences 1956-; Arts & Humanities 1975- Access: 5 users
