Chemical Information Instructor
Introduction to Searching with SciFinder Scholar
Damon D. Ridley
School of Chemistry, University of Sydney, N.S.W. 2006, Australia
Cover
April 2001
Vol. 78 No. 4
p. 557
Abstract
With SciFinder Scholar now one of the preferred access routes to information in the sciences, many college information retrieval courses that dealt with online networks need to be redesigned. Although one of the basic assumptions within the design of SciFinder Scholar is that staff and students may retrieve valuable answers with little training, nevertheless, with a little instruction improved search results may be obtained. We present here our basic teaching program for senior undergraduate and postgraduate classes.
Supplement
Instructions for students and notes for the instructor are available.
