Information Retrieval: SciFinder, 2nd Edition

"Overall this is a valuable resource and reference volume on using SciFinder to its full potential, while allowing the more casual user to dip into the key points and tips without delving into the complexities of the underlying algorithms used by SciFinder and the book therefore serves both the occasional use and expert alike." (Chemistry World, December 2010)

A state-of-the art product...is SciFinder, offering comprehensive databases both bibliographic and factual. A great majority of resources in SciFinder are produced by CAS (Chemical Abstracts Service), a division of the American Chemical Society. This platform also offers advanced tools for working more comfortably with the system. Damon D. Ridley in his book focuses in detail on every option offered by SciFinder.  His work can be considered a comprehensive guide of every part of SciFinder."
