ProQuest CSA Traditional Strength: Discipline Orientated Databases Indexing & Abstracting
Value of A&I • 涵蓋完整領域 • Very comprehensive literature reviews across the entire discipline – A&I has greater breadth, depth and scope • 收錄英文之外的文章之索摘(索摘是用英文) • International in scope and multilingual (with abstracts in English) • 沒有緩衝期 • Content in A&I databases is not under embargo • 使用控制字彙來提升檢索效率 • Indexing standards applied to specialist content sets (such as controlled vocabulary) assist in retrieval of relevant resources
The Value in Abstracts: Limited Time to Scan a Discipline • 增加文章閱讀的速度與效率 • Exponential growth of articles to read per year • “Faculty report nearly twice as many readings as they did thirty years ago” A1 Tenopir,CarolA1 King,Donald W.T1 Electronic Journals and Changes in Scholarly Article Seeking and Reading Patterns JF D-Lib Magazine • 提升對文章的發現與取得,並瞭解該主題的全貌 • Often the scientist’s goal “is not to find an article to read, but rather to find, assess, and exploit a range of information by scanning portions of many articles”. • T1 Strategic Reading, Ontologies, and the Future of Scientific Publishing -- Renear and Palmer 325 (5942): 828 -- Science VO 2009IS 12/8/2009NO id: 1 ED http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/325/5942/828

Recent Abstract & Indexing Innovation Illustrata & Deep Indexing
Recent Innovations: Deep Indexing 2007 CODiE Award Winner: Best Online Science & Technology Service
Why Index Tables & Figures? • 快速得到初步瞭解 • Images are included in Scientific and Technical articles only because they illustrate something fundamental about the research field work, experiment findings or conclusions • 接近於一手資料 • Distilled essence of the research – the closest thing to the raw datasets • 傳統的全文檢索找不到這樣的資訊 • These objects are most often invisible using traditional article-level and full-text searching
Deep Indexing: Indexing Process • Identification of tables and figures (images, charts, maps, etc.) found within a scholarly article • Extraction of critical data and information within and surrounding each table or figure (including full caption) to provide the indexing • Assignment of a category
Search Results 5995 hits … From a regular keyword search • Options to narrow results by: • Date • Scholarly Journals • Full text • Source Type • And more ... • Indexed Images
Deep Indexing Results 173 hits … more targeted hits when we filter by indexed figures & tables results
