Abstract

Abstracts and indexes have been migrating from print to digital for over 2 decades but original full text records, both text and image, are available in a variety of media. Producers of fully electronic journals are planning to index their content rather than rely on full text browsing, even with more powerful search engines. Reviews UMI's ProQuest on CD-ROM, a combination of HW Wilson Applied Science and Technology Abstracts (AST) and full text images of the original articles. The product is currently for DOS with a Windows version planned. Discusses searching and problems
