Access to journals and ebooks published by Elsevier Science.
Web of Science This link opens in a new window
The Web of Science is a large, broad-based abstracting database with direct links to journal articles.
The Web of Knowledge database includes the Web of Science, Biological Abstracts, Zoological Records and the Journal Citation Index. Searching can be across all databases or selected databases.
JSTOR This link opens in a new window
JSTOR provides access to a number of older journal articles.

Remember ...

UCT Libraries subscribes to a large number of print and/or electronic journals relevant to mechanical engineering.

Remember that Aleph and the Electronic Journals page tell you which journals and books we have access to, but they don't tell you which articles or chapters appear in them. For that you use indexes and databases.
