I. JOURNAL ARTICLES: INDEXES AND ABSTRACTS

A. General

• Engineering Index Compendex Web. Online 1969 to present index of journal articles, conference proceedings, books, dissertations, reports.  For retrospective coverage consult the print Engineering Index (ref Z5851 .E62).
• Inspec  indexes conference proceedings, journal articles, books, dissertations, reports for physics, computer science, and electrical and electronic engineering.  Online coverage 1969 to present.
• IEEE XPlore  Searches IEEE journals, transactions, conference proceedings; CSUN has access to full text IEEE journals from 1998 to the present.       
• Applied Science and Technology Index.(Reference Room - Table 11) Covers about 350 journals in all fields of engineering.

B. Applications

• International Aerospace Abstracts. (Reference Room Table 11) International coverage of the journal, book, and technical conference literature in aeronautics and space, including electronics applications.
• Medline or PubMed - via the web at URL (http://library.csun.edu/subsci.html) or at URL (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=PubMed).

C.Technical Reports

• Government Reports Announcements & Index. (GRA)(Z7916 .B47 v.71-83 - Floor 3 and in ASRS) Lists government sponsored R & D reports, with abstracts. CSUN does not have most of these reports, but they are readily available on Interlibrary Loan. UCLA has a selection of them through 1987. All reports are in microfiche format.
• STINET (Scientific and Technical Information Network) will retrieve unclassified technical reports of interest to the defense community, from various sources for 1974 to the present; some reports have full text online.
• NASA Technical Reports Server  access to abstracts and citations of unclassified NASA technical reports, as well as NACA (NASA's predecessor) technical reports, arXiv Physics Eprint Server, BioMed Central, and the Energy Citation Database (OSTI).
• Virtual Technical Reports Center  site  contains links to technical reports, preprints, reprints, dissertations, theses, and research reports of all kinds.

II. BOOKS BY SUBJECT

To find books by subject, title, or author use the computer catalog. To determine what subject term(s) to use, first check the Library of Congress Subject Headings (big red books on stands near the catalogs.) Cross references refer to related terms. The following codes indicate the kinds of relationship between terms: "USE"; means to use the specified subject term rather than the one you tried; "UF"; means "use for"; (i.e.. use the term in bold type instead of the term after UF); "BT", "NT", "RT"; are broader, narrower and related terms respectively; and terms after "--"; are subheadings to be used after the subject term in bold type at the head of the listing. Electronic books for programmers and IT professionals are available via Safari.
