Chemistry and Biochemistry

Web of Science (WoS) indexes leading scholarly journals, books, proceedings, and other formats. Its major subject areas include the natural and social sciences and arts and humanities, with coverage for all areas back to 1900. The heart of WoS is the "Core Collection," which contains records of articles from the highest impact journals worldwide—including open access journals. 

These video tutorials teach aspects of searching, analyzing results, creating a researcher profile, and more.

PubChem is an open chemistry database at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). (“Open” means that you can put your scientific data in PubChem and others may use it). PubChem is a key chemical information resource for scientists, students, and the general public. Records are contributed by government agencies, chemical vendors, journal publishers, and more.

SciFinder-n is the interface to the database of chemistry literature, Chemical Abstracts. It provides full-text access to the world's most comprehensive and authoritative source of substances and reactions in chemistry and related sciences. In addition to the reference, substance, reaction and supplier content found in CAS SciFinder®, CAS SciFinder-n includes relevance-ranked results, step-by-step procedures and protocols, citation mapping, biosequence searching, retrosynthetic analysis, patent landscape mapping, touch-screen enabled structure drawing and much more—all accessible in a simple, easy-to-use interface.

You must have Calvin credentials in order to use the SciFinder-n database, and you will need to request registration from this page before using the site for the first time.

Science Direct is the search engine for journals published by Elsevier, the world's largest publisher of science, technical, and medical journals. Access to articles is different for this database. Because there is a charge for each article downloaded, students need a professor or librarian to retrieve articles.
