Staying up-to-the-minute with the fast-breaking research that is shaping our future has never been easier with... BOWKER A & l PUBLISHING’ Œ-OF-THE-ART DAT ENVIRONMENT ABSTRACTS ENERGY INFORMATION ABSTRACTS ACID RAIN ABSTRACTS ROBOTICS ABSTRACTS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ABSTRACTS CAD/CAM ABSTRACTS TELEGEN (BIOTECHNOLOGY) ABSTRACTS TELECOMMUNICATIONS ABSTRACTS ...because every month Bowker’s eight carefully compiled journals abstract and index thousands of articles on environmental studies, energy, acid rain*, robotics, artificial intelligence, CAD/CAM, biotechnology, and telecommunications. The information found in each publication is drawn from over 1,700 international scientific, economic, technical, academic, and trade journals plus scores of leading general-circulation newspapers, magazines, and wire services. More than just journals. Better still, our journals are part of a sophisticated document retrieval system that lets you order comprehensive microfiche collections carrying the full text of over 80% o f the articles we cite. And you can order microfiche or paper copies of individual articles on a per-document basis as well. In addition, all eight databases are available online from the top online services. What’s more, Bowker A & I Publishing’s journals bring together the “grey” or elusive literature - conference proceedings, government studies, scientific association reports, even patents — that often is neither indexed or available in any readily accessible medium. So whether you’re looking for the latest findings on gene products, ozone depletion, nonconventional fuels, U.S. acid rain policy, robot locomotion, human-machine interfaces, or any of hundreds o f other crucial high-tech issues, don’t bury yourself in indexes or burden yourself with serials orders. *Acid rain is abstracted and indexed every two months. Look to Bowker A & I Publishing to keep you current with the literature. You’ll not only make a small research breakthrough yourself...you’ll make a big one easier for your patrons, too.
