Lab Now Has Site-wide Subscription to Science Magazine’s On-line Version Lab employees can now read Science Magazine on their computers, thanks to a site-wide subscription arranged by the Lab’s Library. Science Online allows users to read the current issue of Science, search archives back a few years and sign up for email alerts about specific topics. The site also provides a news service of recent news articles. And it’s all available to Lab employees at no cost (the Library joined a DOE group which negotiated licenses for various labs at a very low rate). The on-line version of Science is even richer than the print version. For instance, clicking on the Dec. 18, 1998, article heralding Saul Perlmutter’s cosmology research as the breakthrough of the year also provides related links, from the Lab’s web pages on the project to family photos of Albert Einstein. The arrangement is set up so that employees logging onto the web site from the Lab domain are given immediate access -- there’s no log-in procedure or password to remember. The most informative way to access the Science Online site is through the Library directory of journals (where you can see the wide range of other on-line publications) at: http://www-library.lbl.gov/Library/text/ftext/ejour.html Click on the letter "S" under electronic journal titles and then on Science Online. |
