SciSearch and Social SciSearch Databases to be Temporarily Unavailable

The NMSU Library announces that SciSearch and Social SciSearch, two citation databases provided by the Los Alamos National Laboratory Research Library, will be unavailable from 4 p.m., Thursday, February 28, until 8 a.m. Saturday, March 1.

As an alternative, users are encouraged to use Web of Science, produced by Thomson ISI. Web of Science has the same records as SciSearch and Social SciSearch; the only difference is the search interface. Web of Science is available from the Library's Article Databases page at http://lib.nmsu.edu/article.shtml. Please contact the NMSU Library Reference Desk for more information at (575) 646-5792 or email webref@lib.nmsu.edu.
