INDEXING & ABSTRACTINGProQuest CSA Traditional Strength: Discipline Orientated Databases
Very comprehensive literature reviews across the entire discipline – A&I has greater breadth, depth and scope
International in scope and multilingual (with abstracts in English)
Content in A&I databases is not under embargo Indexing standards applied to specialist content sets
(such as controlled vocabulary) assist in retrieval of relevant resources
ROI for Libraries – researchers discover articles available within the library’s paper and digital resources
Suitability for researchers’ workflow ….

ASFA: Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts Database
Overwhelmingly cited by a majority of aquatic science librarians as their primary database, the ASFA series is the premier reference in the field of aquatic resources. Input to ASFA is provided by a growing international network of information centers monitoring over 5,000 serial publications, books, reports, conference proceedings, translations and limited distribution literature. ASFA is a component of the Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System (ASFIS), formed by four United Nations agency sponsors of ASFA and a network of international and national partners.
Sources covered include over 3,000 periodicals, conference proceedings, technical reports, trade journal/newsletter items, patents, books, and press releases. Subject Coverage

Oceanic Abstracts
Starting its 33rd year, Oceanic Abstracts is focused exclusively on worldwide technical literature pertaining to the marine and brackish-water environment. The database has long been recognized as a leading source of information on topics relating to oceans. The database focuses on marine biology and physical oceanography, fisheries, aquaculture, non-living resources, meteorology and geology, plus environmental, technological, and legislative topics. This database is totally comprehensive in its coverage of living and non-living resources, meteorology and geology, plus environmental, technological, and legislative topics.
Subject Coverage
• * Biological Oceanography• * Ecology• * Physical and chemical oceanography• * Marine geology• * Geophysics• * Geochemistry• * Marine pollution• * Nonliving marine resources• * Navigation and communications
• * Maritime law• * Desalination• * Ships• * Shipping• * Marine biology
(Note Oceanic Abstracts is not included in ASFA but is part of ProQuest Aquatic Science Collection)
ILLUSTRATA & DEEP INDEXING
Recent Abstract & Indexing Innovation
Recent Innovations: Deep Indexing
2007 CODiE Award Winner: Best Online Science & Technology Service
Why Index Tables & Figures?
1. Images are included in Scientific and Technical articles only because they illustrate something fundamental about the research field work, experiment findings or conclusions
2. Distilled essence of the research – the closest thing to the raw datasets
3. Articles with the right kinds of objects quickly establish the relevance of the related data and findings
4. These objects are most often invisible using traditional article-level and full-text searching
Deep Indexing: Indexing Process
1. Identification of tables and figures
(images, charts, maps, etc.) found
within a scholarly article
2. Extraction of critical data and
information within and surrounding
each table or figure (including full
caption) to provide the indexing
3. Assignment of a category
