The Aslib Engineering Group will conduct an event on September 8, 2005 in London to analyse the current and potential improvements in full-text linking bibliographic databases. Company representatives will demonstrate engineering products such as Elsevier’s Engineering Village 2 and the Web of Science and Thomson’s Scopus. Issues such as the future status of bibliographic databases, the advantages of large-scale multidisciplinary resources over small-scale resources and the possible role of indexing and funding for library managers to provide access to various e-sources will be examined. These are discussed against the current significance that search engines have as the first resort for obtaining information.
