Search for journal articles in
subject-specific databases
• Web of Science with Science Citation Index - interdisciplinary! Who cited a specific document? How much is a document cited?
• INSPEC (Information Service in Physics, Electronics, Computer and Control) - interdisciplinary, because IT plays a considerable
role in all areas of engineering today
• TEMA (Technology and Management), wti Frankfurt, formerly Fachinformationszentrum (FIZ) Technik
• RSWB plus – references on planning and building
(Access to these reference databases only in TUHH intranet)

Reflect about information
How to cite? What can I copy? Thinking about intellectual property!
What is not included in Google? Danger of monopoly of information access?
Costs of scholarly journals?

Journals’ Crisis
Duration of publication process, problems in intellectual property => Open Access (OA)
Authors want to publish more,
readers want to read less.
(Hans E. Roosendaal, University of Twente)

What does Open Access mean?
• Free access to scholarly information
• Worldwide availability without restrictions
• Maximal circulation
• Originated in the beginnings of the 90s in physics
• Benefited from journals‘ crisis

Two ways to Open Access (OA)
• The golden way to OA: Publication in OA journals Directory of Open Access Journals – www.doaj.org • The green way to OA: Self-archiving of documents => “Institutional Repository” e.g. TUBdok as document server of the TUHH: http://doku.b.tu-harburg.de Normally allowed by publishers: http://romeo.eprints.org!
