Illustrata Natural Sciences - trial access until November 30, 2009


Illustrata: Natural Sciences - a reference database of searchable tables, figures, graphs, charts and other illustrations from the scholarly research and technical literature.
Data, variables and other content represented in tables, maps, photographs and other figures are categorized by "deep indexing" thereby
  • gaining faster and more precise understanding of the work reported in articles by direct examination of the tables and figures
  • improving the efficiency of searching by providing more precise and smaller results sets
  • finding suitable illustrations that could be downloaded directly into presentation software for teaching/lectures/presentations
  • assistance with writing of review papers, meta-analyses, proposals, and for generating hypotheses
  • supporting the transformation of practice and supporting the learning of new skills and methods, including how to effectively present results in tables, figures and graphs
