This document provides information about library literature sources and citation managers. It begins with questions to test the reader's knowledge of databases like INSPEC and Web of Science as well as citation tools such as RefWorks and Zotero. It then lists library services and resources available to students, including databases, citation help, and research guides. Details are given on specific databases like INSPEC, Scifinder Scholar, and Google Scholar. Free citation managers RefWorks and Zotero are also summarized, explaining how to create accounts, import references, organize folders and bibliographies.

2. Some Quick Questions The Libraries spends over $5,000,000 annually to purchase and access literature databases, journals, books, and websites. TRUE FALSE The main literature database for Materials Science research articles is INSPEC. TRUE FALSE Google Scholar covers the same journals, patents, conference proceedings and monographs as Web of Science. TRUE FALSE

3. More Questions The citation manager Zotero was named after a magical sorcerer in a Walt Disney movie. TRUE FALSE Eugene Garfield, PhD, created the print Science Citation Index in 1945, which later was expanded and renamed the Web of Science. TRUE FALSE Examples of free online materials scienceweb resources include Wikipedia, arXiv.org, and Google Scholar. TRUE FALSE

4. Still More Questions Citation Searching is where you try to complete the missing parts of a research article citation, such as author, title, journal volume, and page number, on the web. TRUE FALSE Article preprints are documents that researchers initially decided to publish but can’t due to poor research methodology or other reasons. A. TRUE B. FALSE
