Welcome.
This presentation will provide a tour of the basic features and functionality of the Compendex database on Engineering Village 2. No prior experience with either Compendex or Engineering Village 2 is assumed or necessary.
Welcome to Engineering Village 2, the premier web-based discovery platform for the engineering community.
Engineering Village 2 offers premium bibliographic databases and features Ei’s Compendex, Inspec from the IEE, and the U.S. government’s National Technical Information Service’s (NTIS) Database
Engineering Village 2 also offers users the ability to search engineering reference sources comprised of electronic books, including: CRC handbooks, Referex Engineering
Engineering Village 2 also enables users to access other engineering sources, including News provided by Lexis-Nexis, Patent sites, and the All Science Web search, Scirus.
All of these sources are tied together with an easy-to-use interface that supports both novice (end-user) searchers and experienced information professionals.

This presentation focuses on Compendex on Engineering Village 2 – the well-known global research database on all aspects of engineering. Global in scope, it provides comprehensive AND up-to-the-minute coverage of the world’s engineering literature. Some facts and figures:
Bibliographic records from over 4,000 international research journals, trade magazines, conference material and technical reports
Over 8 million records from 1969 onward
About a half million records added each year – significant growth reflects volume of published literature that appears annually
Weekly updates ensure currency
For retrospective material, Engineering Index Backfile is now available, covering 120 years back to1884, it includes original reports of many historic discoveries and inventions – the Wright Brothers’ flight experiments, early nuclear-weapons research, the first manned space flights, etc.
For users who are comfortable with “deep” searching techniques, Expert Search gives you full command-line flexibility and functionality. Fully supports all truncation, Boolean search logic, nesting, etc.
Command-line syntax is fully documented in Help. Click on the question mark (?) next to search box.
Features: Larger dialog box for entering query
Full list of search codes for all data fields
Additional choices in Browse Indexes – treatment type, document type, language (all 30+ languages)
After hitting SEARCH, a list of citations appears.
The number of hits found appears at the top of the list – here, 143.
Select checkboxes for records to manage, or select ranges. Management options appear at top of page:
