Technology search service provider TechXtra, UK, has launched a new service, TechJournalContents. The service allows users to search across the current issues of more than 4,500 scholarly technology journals from multiple publishers, in order to find the latest research articles.
TechJournalContents is expected to be of interest to researchers and others who want to keep up-to-date. A number of the journals searched are freely available on Open Access. For others, access to the full text of search results will depend on institutional or personal subscriptions. The service ingests Tables of Contents RSS feeds provided by numerous journal publishers such as Springer, Emerald, Inderscience, Wiley Interscience, Elsevier, Taylor & Francis, IEEE, Sage, AIP, IMechE and more. It then uses the journalTOCs API, produced by the journalTOCs Project, to deliver results to the TechJournalContents service.
An initiative of the Institute for Computer Based Learning (ICBL) and the library at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, TechXtra is an independent service and free source of information in engineering, mathematics, and computing. The service cross-searches 31 different collections relevant to engineering, mathematics and computing, including content from over 50 publishers and providers.
