Cited-Article Links Help Users "Follow the Research"MELVILLE, NEW YORK, 23 March 2007 — The American Institute of Physics is pleased to announce the release today of enhancements to its digital backfiles. For each of the AIP journals listed below, hyperlinked references have been added to the bibliographic headers for the years 1991-1998. This will allow users to click on references and follow links to the cited articles, a function already available for AIP's "born digital" content from 1999 to the present. "This is only the first phase of our project to build links to and from AIP's older legacy content," said Paul DeCillis, manager of online services. "We plan to have linkable references to cited articles for all AIP journal content back to 1930 and 1931, when AIP began publishing Review of Scientific Instruments and Journal of Applied Physics, respectively. This older content is remarkably well-used, and researchers will now benefit from easy-to-use links to cited research papers." AIP journals, hosted on Scitation ( www.scitation.org), also provide links to articles that cite the AIP articles. Together, these "forward" and "backward" links - to both cited and citing articles - offer rich pathways through the research literature for any user. Each AIP journal has been digitized back to its first volume, and backfiles older than five years are available online to subscribers for a small fee in addition to the regular subscription price. All AIP journals include at least a five-year backfile with current subscriptions (the journal Chaos, a quarterly, includes all published issues back to 1991 with current subscriptions). The following journals now have enhanced references for all content published from 1991 through 1998:
Applied Physics Letters
Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science
Journal of Applied Physics
The Journal of Chemical Physics
Journal of Mathematical Physics Physics of Fluids Physics of Plasmas Review of Scientific Instruments
