Zotero: The Next-Generation Research Tool
Har du hört talas om
Zotero: The Next-Generation Research Tool? Vet att jag pekat på den förut men...Utvecklat vid George Mason University, Washington D.C. Det är en fullfjädrad, gratis "reference manager". Samla, spara och skapa referenser. Lätt att arbeta med. Obs: du måste använda webbläsaren Firefox för att använda Zotero.
En kort introduktion på svenska hittar du här:

NextBio
NextBio en sökmotor för "life sciences".
"NextBio is a life science search engine that enables researchers and clinicians to access and understand the world's life sciences information. With NextBio, in just one click you can search through tens of thousands of
study results with billions of data points spanning across different experimental platforms, organisms and data types. NextBio also searches across millions of publications to help you find new articles pertaining to your query. NextBio's search engine makes massive amounts of disparate biological, clinical and chemical data from public and proprietary sources searchable, regardless of data type and origin, and empowers scientists to quickly understand their own experimental results within the context of other research.

Biodiversity Heritage Library
Ett verkligt "fynd":
Biodiversity Heritage Library.-som jag antagligen nämnt förut, men som definitivt förtjänar att nämnas igen: "Ten major natural history museum libraries, botanical libraries, and research institutions have joined to form the Biodiversity Heritage Library Project. The group is developing a strategy and operational plan to digitize the published literature of biodiversity held in their respective collections. This literature will be available through a global “biodiversity commons"
Deltagande organisationer:
American Museum of Natural History (New York, NY)
The Field Museum (Chicago, IL)
Harvard University Botany Libraries (Cambridge, MA)
Harvard University, Ernst Mayr Library of the Museum of Comparative Zoology (Cambridge, MA)
Marine Biological Laboratory / Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (Woods Hole, MA)
Missouri Botanical Garden (St. Louis, MO)
Natural History Museum (London, UK)
The New York Botanical Garden (New York, NY)
Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (Richmond, UK)
Smithsonian Institution Libraries (Washington, DC)
Just nu finns 4263 titlar. Sökningar kan filtreras på en mängd olika sätt; språk, år i kartvy m.m.

Scholarpedia- Citizenpedia
Det finns två "ättlingar" till Wikipedia:
Scholarpedia och
Citizendium- the citizens´compendium. De försöker, på var sitt sätt, bemöta kritiken om Wikipedias tillförlitlighet. Scholarpedia skapas och skrivs av "experter": "peer reviewed encyclopedia written by
scholars from all around the world.
och Citizendium av "The general public and experts collaborate, using their real names". Absolut värda en titt.

Science, Evolution, and Creationism
The National Academies Press har lagt ut ännu en intressant bok:
Science, Evolution, and Creationism... " Science, Evolution, and Creationism explains the fundamental methods of science, documents the overwhelming evidence in support of biological evolution, and evaluates the alternative perspectives offered by advocates of various kinds of creationism, including "intelligent design." The book explores the many fascinating inquiries being pursued that put the science of evolution to work in preventing and treating human disease, developing new agricultural products, and fostering industrial innovations. The book also presents the scientific and legal reasons for not teaching creationist ideas in public school science classes"
Den är fritt tillgänglig online

Open Science Directory
En mycket intressant söktjänst (m.m.) utvecklad av EBSCO och Hasselt University Library :
Open Science Directory.
Målet är att skapa ett sökverktyg för alla OA tidskrifter (eller de som ingår i speciella proghram för t.ex. utvecklingsländer) och förenkla åtkomsten genom direkt tillgång till tidskriften ..."All information about the included journal collections is available at the websites of the included projects. These websites are directly accessible from the Open Science Directory.
The Open Science Directory will not replace these programs. Also the different programs have their own regulations and eligibility conditions. As a interested user, you or your institute will have to register on their sites if you want to make use of special programs like HINARI, AGORA, INASP-PERI, OARE, eIFL and eJDS. " Mer: "About 13000 scientific journals are now available in the ‘Open Science Directory’. When all the special program journals will be included, the Open Science Directory will contain more than 20000 titles.
Open Science Directory contains collections of Open Access Journals (full – partly) and journals in the special programs (Hinari, Agora). Other programs will be added in the near future: OARE, INASP-PERI, eIFL, eJDS.

I
PrimateLit Database - en databas med bibliografiska uppgifter inom zoologi, från ca 1940 och framåt- finns nu länkar till de tidskrifter som Uppsala universitetsbibliotek prenumererar på; när du hittat en artikel finns i de flesta fall en knapp som leder till fulltexten...
