Advantages of JCE on CD-ROM
, In
Searching and Linking There are several ways to obtain the information you want from JCE CD. If you know the year and month in which an article was published, or if you remember what the cover of the issue looked like, a mouse click or two will bring you to the table of contents of the issue you want. The title of each article in the table of contents is a link that takes you to the article itself as well as an abstract and links to any supplemental material that may accompany the article. You can perform a full search of the CD using Adobe Acrobat Reader (included on the CD); you can search the full text of all articles for any word, partial word, or phrase. A successful search produces a list of links to the articles that contain the text for which you searched. This text will be highlighted in each article. You will find that many references in the Literature Cited section at the end of each article are linked—a mouse click takes you to the article cited. If that article is not on the CD and you have an Internet connection, the linked reference will take you to JCE Online. WWW URLs (to other than JCE Online) that appear in articles are also linked directly to Web sites.
