IPSWICH, Mass. — December 15, 2016 — EBSCO Information Services (EBSCO) will be adding two new resources, BIOSIS Previews™ and Zoological Record™, to the EBSCOhost® platform. EBSCO and Clarivate Analytics, formerly the Intellectual Property and Science business of Thomson Reuters, have expanded their partnership to make these two resources available via EBSCOhost, the most-used for-fee electronic resource in libraries around the world.
BIOSIS Previews, a bibliographic database covering life sciences and biomedical sciences, combines journal content from Biological Abstracts® with supplemental, non-journal coverage from Biological Abstracts/RRM® (Reports, Reviews, Meetings). With backfiles to 1926, researchers can access current or retrospective literature in areas such as pre-clinical and experimental research, methods and instrumentation, animal studies, and environmental and consumer issues.
Zoological Record is an index of zoological literature, and is the world's oldest continuing database of animal biology. The broad scope of content ranges from biodiversity and the environment to taxonomy and veterinary sciences and coverage extends back to 1864.
Head of Research and Discovery at Clarivate Analytics Joelle Masciulli says, “We are excited to make this valuable content available to customers through the EBSCOhost platform, joining our long-time partnership with EBSCO for Biological Abstracts and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts. This partnership represents our commitment to serving our customers’ needs and integrating our data into their critical workflows wherever possible.”
