Zoological Record

Tonight my research project was the ISI Web of Knowledge Zoological Rocord Database. The more data bases I research the more simularities I see between most of them. This on like many others has a very effective avanced search. There are many limiters a patron can add to his or her search which makes for very particular search results. You can limit the search by species or by the type of resource you might be looking for, like books, articles, chapters, and meeting papers. You can search by author, title, year, and subject area. This database also allows you to export articles to endnote. One thing I thought was super neat was the language limiter. You can limit your search results to only show results in a specific language. This site does not seem as high tech and savvy as some I have seen in the past but it does the job. It isn't really fun and it doesn't get me excited about aminal records, but if someone needed the information, it would do the job.
