Indexes and Abstracts

Index to Scientific and Technical Proceedings. Philadelphia: Institute for Scientific Information. Monthly, 1978- . Location: Morris Library - Reference (Ref Q158.5 .I537)

JSTOR Back runs of mathematical sciences journals; not current issues. The JSTOR database is an archive of important scholarly journals, offering researchers high-resolution, scanned images of journal issues and pages. It now includes over 37,000 articles from The American Mathematical Monthly, from 1894 to 2004. The MAA web site ranks the top nine most frequently accessed American Mathematical Monthly articles in the database.

MathSciNet Consists of reviews and citations to the world’s research literature in mathematics, statistics, and related areas compiled from Mathematical reviews, and Current mathematical publications, 1940- present.

Web of Science > A multidisciplinary database of bibliographic information indexed to be searched by subject, author, journal, and/or author address. It can also be searched for articles that cite a known author or work. Cited reference searching allows use of a given work as if it were a subject term, to identify more recent articles on the same topic.
