Title

CARL UnCover2 or FaxonFinder? : a comparison of articles and journals in CARL UnCover2 and FaxonFinder

Source

Abstract

FaxonFinder and UnCover2 are well known US-based online searching and document delivery systems currently available and competing for users. On the surface they appear to be more or less the same. To test this assumption, 7 subjects in various disciplines were searched in each system and then compared from the point of view of journal and article overlap. For the 7 disciplines the average overlap in journal articles was 33,6%. The startling lack of overlap revealed in the results of this preliminary study suggest that both of these systems cover different ground, and that a standard and general purpose database system has yet to emerge
