Ebsco Publishing has reached agreement with BIOSIS to include Biological Abstracts via EBSCOhost, its online reference service. The database is a collection of bibliographic references to life sciences journals published around the world. It contains about 360,000 references in the backfile, 90% of them with abstracts. More than 4,000 journals are included. Ebsco's SmartLinks allows users to link from a citation in the result list of the database to the corresponding full text in another. Links to local holdings are also available.
EBSCOhost now offers access to more than 60 proprietary and licensed databases and includes the full-text of articles in more than 2,800 journals.
