The American Chemical Society (ACS) has launched a new resource that gives students, journalists, scientists, libraries and others instant access to more than eight decades of content from its weekly news magazine, Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN). Called C&EN Archives, the new resource includes more than 500,000 pages of content from over 85 years of C&EN. It is available at http://pubs.acs.org/cen-archives.
C&EN Archives constitutes an unparalled chronicle of the chemical enterprise -and the multiple other scientific disciplines that involve chemistry. At its initial launch, C&EN Archives includes content from 1923 through 2009. In early 2011, content from 2010 will also be added. C&EN Archives is fully searchable and accessible via the same user-friendly platform that enables readers to peruse their current electronic editions of ACS' suite of 38 peer-reviewed scientific journals.
C&EN Archives includes both quick search and advanced search options using keywords, authors, dates, and article titles. A browse-by-issue functionality enables readers to view the table of contents of each issue, with the option to go to the next or previous issue with a single click. Users can also browse a cover gallery to find the issue they need. In addition, a free abstract view provides a quick overview of the article, displaying the first 150 words.
The online resource is available to institutions via an annual leased subscription or one-time payment option, complementing institutional subscriptions to C&EN Online. Additional years of content will be added to C&EN Archives on a rolling basis.
