SciFinder Scholar


We now have access to the latest version of SciFinder Scholar in its new format: SciFinder Web. Due to a number of factors, YOU WILL NEED TO MIGRATE TO SFWeb BY NOVEMBER 16, 2009 to continue to use SciFinder.

You must register as an individual to gain access to SFWeb, and you must register with a UIC email account. SFWeb can be used with our proxy server so it will no longer be necessary to use a VPN connection from home.

To register for a SciFinder Web (SFW) account, please go to:
1. Library home page http://library.uic.edu/
2. Choose "Databases A-Z"
3. Select "S"
4. Select "Scifinder Scholar - Web Version Registration for ALL users"

Once you are registered the link to log into SFWeb is at the same location: http://researchguides.uic.edu/content.php?pid=27672&sid=201067

If you do not get the registration e-mail check your spam folder, it has most likely ended up there.

You may also need to download the Java Plug-in for structure searching which is available at http://www.cas.org/misc/downloads/jreplugin.html

Please direct any problems or questions using SciFinder Web to Tim Klassen, klassen@uic.edu.
