Long available only with the Scholar client, you can now register for an account to search SciFinder via the web. When you register for a web account, you’ll receive your own username and password. This, in conjunction with IP authentication of a computer on the UMass network, will enable you to search SciFinder through your web browser, rather than with the Scholar client.
To register for a SciFinder web account and to connect to the SciFinder web version, visit the Library’s SciFinder page. Should you want to download the SciFinder Scholar client, it’s available from this page too.
The Library has purchased access to SciFinder for 6 simultaneous users. Please, when you finish your work, logoff SciFinder so others can connect to it.
For more information about the database, visit the SciFinder site. If you would like assistance using SciFinder, contact the Chemistry librarian, Paulina Borrego.
