Newswise — ASME has announced the ASME Digital Library, providing online access to many of the Society's technical publications while offering users a comprehensive range of functions and links for searching and cross-referencing.
The new ASME Digital Library consolidates the Society's 22 technical journals and more than 100 conference proceedings into a single, seamless online resource on the Society's Web site, www.asme.org. ASME Press e-Books also are available in the Digital Library.
The content of ASME Digital Library is available to users " including engineers, engineering researchers, scientists, academics, and library services " on a subscription basis. The content includes current ASME transactions journals and other journals dating back to 1990, more than 30,000 conference proceedings papers, and ASME Press e-Books dating back to 1999. Users of the digital library have a full range of available information, features, and services facilitated by the Scitation® platform. These include cross-journal searching, the ability to view individual articles online before the journal is printed, extensive links to primary publishers and databases, and a complete suite of personalization tools.
"The new ASME Digital Library is an indispensable tool for mechanical engineers and engineers across a wide range of disciplines, as well as for scientists in allied fields," said Philip DiVietro, ASME Managing Director of Publishing.
The hosting service, Scitation®, is a division of the American Institute of Physics, a not-for-profit corporation chartered in 1931 to provide publishing and distribution services for scientific and technical societies.
