Topics", Reports on Topical Engineering and Technology Issues |
| . |
EEVL is an award-winning free service, created
and run by a team of information specialists from a number of universities
and institutions in the UK.

A new feature has been added
to the EEVL website which gives access
to in-depth reports on topical engineering and technology issues. The new
feature is called Hot Topics http://www.eevl.ac.uk/hottopics.htm
The Hot Topics are freely available,
and are provided through CSA. CSA is an information company which specialises
in publishing and distributing, in print and electronically, 100 bibliographic
and full-text databases and journals in the natural sciences, social sciences,
arts & humanities, and technology.
Links to thirteen in-depth reports
are currently available from EEVLs Hot Topics page. In addition, each
of the Hot Topics has been catalogued by EEVL and can also be found via
the Internet Resources Catalogue.
The Hot Topics cover a wide
range of subjects of current interest. Each gives an overview of the subject,
key citations (which lead to full abstracts) which sample the resources
of CSA Illumina, and include links to relevant and substantial websites.
The following Hot Topics are currently available:
* Columbia
Shuttle Tragedy
* Nanomaterials:
