Elsevier Engineering Information, Inc. (http://www.ei.org) announced the availability of the IEE's Inspec Archive to the Engineering Village 2 Web-based discovery platform. The Inspec Archive is the result of the digitization and enhancement of the Science Abstracts Journals, which date from 1898 and cover published literature in physics, electrical engineering, and computing and control. Inspec is a bibliographic database providing global coverage of scientific and technical literature in the fields of physics, electrical engineering, electronics, and computer science. The Science Abstracts Journals are the print predecessors to the Inspec bibliographic database.The Inspec Archive spans 176 print volumes and more than 140,000 pages and results in more than 870,000 fully digitized records. All records contain original indexing, abstracts, figures, and graphs that appear in the original print versions. Engineering Village 2 supports seamless searching of the Inspec Archive with the Inspec database. By allowing researchers to combine searches of the Inspec Archive with The Engineering Index Backfile, the company claims that Engineering Village 2 offers access to the greatest available electronic body of engineering literature. Combined, the collections contain more than 2.5 million historical records. Source: Elsevier Engineering Information, Inc.
