Databases are resources that contain environmental information in various fields. Databases may be available from government or educational institutions online or by inquiry, or may be available from commercial establishments on-line or CD-ROM. Some databases are essentially electronic entries to library catalogs and also provide access to full text articles and/or direct entry to publishers Web sites.

Unfortunately, a computer search of library catalogs shows there is no such book. That isn t too surprising in this day and age even books like Kimura s and Kauffman s that propose new theories are usually preceded by papers on the topic that are first published in scientific journals. The absence of papers on the evolution of biochemical structures in the journals just about kills any chance of there being a book published on the matter. 

The same approach was soon thereafter applied, at the request of the American Library Association, to library catalog cards. The new nonacid cards made from chemical wood pulps were able to outlast the acidic ones made previously from rag, in spite of rag s potential for higher initial strength. Barrow s proposed specifications for a minimum cold extraction pH of 6.0 and a minimum diagonal folding endurance of 800 are now incorporated in the American National Standards Z 85.1 (4).

Other Aids. Other aids include lists of titles of dissertations for countries and for individual universities, bibliographies, volumes of abstracts issued by the universities, other university publications, and library catalogs. Unfortunately no one of these aids or combination of all assures complete coverage of dissertations at the present time. 

Library catalogs of dissertations are printed very rarely. The cataloging of dissertations is very incomplete in many libraries some have only author entries, and others have title and author cards but no subject classification. In countries where there are no union lists, the lists of dissertations issued by the individual universities may appear regularly for a long period or only intermittently. 

Most chemists are familiar with the library catalog. It consists of a card or cards carrying bibliographic data only for each title on the library shelves. It may be a dictionary catalog containing cards filed alphabetically for each author and subject, or it may be only an author index to the books plus a shelf-list section. This shelf-list consists of one card for each title, arranged in the same classification order in which the books are filed on the shelves.
