2005 - the Year in Retrospect
Seasons greetings to you!
This blog Science News from Massey Library has been in operation since October 2004. It was developed as a useful way of archiving the email messages sent to academic staff - we are aware that the majority of emails are deleted sight unseen and that people will generally want them only months after they have been trashed! We only recently discovered that we may have the distinction of being New Zealand's first library bloggers - and it doesn't come much bigger than that, folks! (We may also be the only blog anywhere to feature the Encyclopedia of Meat Sciences).
Here are some of the highlights of 2005 (we've left out the nagging and there wasn't any bad news) -
Eight new Nature journals added to the Library's collection (December)
BioOne journal collection (November)
Elsevier ScienceDirect backfiles (November)
Extended coverage for Web of Science (November)
Encyclopedia of Information Systems (November)
SciFinder Scholar 2006 available (November)
Are Journal Citation Reports Distorting Science? (October)
Encyclopedia of Meat Sciences (October)
Bailey's Industrial Oils (September)
Massey's most cited science journals (August)
New Zealand Science Database (August)
Nine new encyclopedias from Elsevier (March)
JAMA Online (February)
Encyclopedia of Agricultural, Food and Biological Engineering (January)
