Bibliographies and Indexes
- MathSciNet online database of Mathematical Reviews (MR).
- Zentralblatt fur Mathematik / Mathematics Abstracts
- online: MATH file on STN, 1972- (ask Sarah Oelker.)
- Zentralblatt Math Database the complete run (1931- ) of Zentralblatt fur Mathematik is searchable at this German site. You can get up to 3 results from each search (demo mode -- we do not have a subscription). Free service: Citation checker.
- Current Index to Statistics (CIS)
- online via DIALOG file 239 (1974-1994) (ask Sarah Oelker).
- free web access to older CIS database (lags several years)
- CD-ROM version (ask Professor George Cobb)
- Index to Statistics and Probability (Tukey)
- Science Citation Index (ISI's Web of Science): a major web-based service covering 5,700 journals in science (1945- ) and over 2,000 in other disciplines. Special feature: search by cited reference (to find newer papers that refer to an earlier known work).
E-Journals
E-journal mega-lists:
MHC e-journal subscriptions for access via our campus network:
Please search the Online Library Catalog by journal title if you are seeking a specific title. We are now cataloging each e-journal to which we have subscribed or signed a license agreement. You should find records there for both print and online journals. You should also be able to connect directly to the e-journal.
Or try Five College E-Journal Locator (SFX): identify e-journals held by MHC and the Five Colleges. Note: This new service does not yet contain all of our e-journal holdings, but it does search collections such as Academic Search Premier, BioOne, JSTOR, etc. The "Citation Linker" will go to the full-text of a specific article if you provide the exact volume and page numbers.
We have subscriptions to many SIAM journals, and to a significant JSTOR collection of journal backfiles in Mathematics and Statistics. Other E-Journals, freely available, useful for MHC:
You can get SOME e-journal content free without subscription. We have not cataloged these. We do not know if they will remain free. Selected examples:
Organizations
Current Awareness
- Current Mathematical Publications (CMP) is a subject index of bibliographic data for recent and forthcoming publications. Updated daily on MathSciNet. (Most items are later reviewed in MR. All items in MR appear first in CMP. The MR record for an item with a review replaces the CMP record for that item.)
- Directory of Mathematics Preprint and e-Print Servers (AMS)
- Front for the Mathematics ArXiv (UC Davis)
- Mathematics Preprints links to several preprint services, including xxx.lanl.gov(ArXiv).
- Prepublications: databases of preprints from mathematical institutions in France (in French).
- Ingenta: free access to tables of contents for over 25,000 publications, searchable by title keyword, author, or periodical title. Ingenta provides links to full-text of 4500 publications (free for subscribers, or pay-per-view).
Selected WWW Sites
The list below is just a sample. It includes some of the best "metasites", sites that include links to many more sites, organized by subject or theme or format. These are excellent starting places for exploring the Internet
