PubMed is the public access version to Medline, the premier database for biomedical literature. PubMedPlus is an enhanced version with links to full-text journals that the Penn Library subscribes to. Once the "Log-in" is completed, any full-text articles to which Penn Libraries subscribe will become available within the PubMed system by clicking on the Penn Text icon. The MEDLINE database is widely recognized as the premier source for bibliographic coverage of biomedical literature. The PubMed version of MEDLINE includes the PREMEDLINE database, which provides very current basic citati on information and abstracts before the full records are prepared and added to MEDLINE. New records are added to PREMEDLINE daily. In addition, for participating journals that are indexed selectively for MEDLINE, PubMed includes all articles from that journal, not just those that are included in MEDLINE. PubMed is also the literature component of the Entrez retrieval system for molecular biology information. For additional information, see the PubMed Overview.
Holdings: 1950 to the present. Updated daily.

Accessed via a Mac or Windows client (Commander) which can be downloaded to any campus workstation, Gmelin contains information on approximately 2.2 million inorganic and organometallic substances. Included in this number are coordination compounds, alloys, solid solutions, glasses, ceramics, polymers, and minerals. Records in the database include structures, reactions, and data on over 800 chemical and physical properties such as characterization; chemical properties; reaction details; condensed phase data; electric, magnetic, mechanical, molecular, and optical properties; electrochemistry; phase transition data; quantum chemical calculations; spectroscopy; systemic properties; thermodynamics; transport phenomena; and thermal properties. In addition, the database offers references to the chemical literature published from 1772 to date. The database may be searched using structures and/or text (property information, chemical name, molecular formula).

Chemical information: bibliographic, compound and reaction information. Accessed via a Mac or Windows client (SciFinder Scholar) which can be downloaded to any campus workstation. The database can only be accessed from University-originating network addresses, with 5 simultaneous users permitted.

SciFinder Scholar can access:

  • Bibliographic information from Chemical Abstracts (CAPlus). Over 14 million citations to the literature of chemistry and its applications. The database includes the basic bibliographic information appearing in the print Chemical Abstracts, including abstracts and index terms.
  • Compound information from the Registry file. Over 18 million substances indexed by Chemical Abstracts. Can be searched using chemical name, molecular formula and structure.
  • Reaction information from the CASREACT file. Over 1.2 million single-step and 1.7 million multi-step reactions. Contains information on reactions of organic substances, including organometallics and biomolecules. Searchable by structure.

Holdings: 1907-present. Abstracts updated daily; compound registry and indexing updated weekly

This isn't a periodic table, per se, but it does state the names of (most of) the elements.  It is suitably silly for inclusion in this project

This periodic table uses Flash.  As you mouse over elements, the display changes to tell you things about their properties, such as row and column of the table, phase of matter, etc.  You can also select up to 18 elements by clicking on them, and then display their cells from the table, enlarged, at one time.  The help is fairly useful if you're confused.

This is a real periodic table.  It links to comic frames that mention the various elements.

A truly silly periodic table, but one that allows you to describe the quality of your whipped cream: good whiped cream is AiCr, while lesser quality (the kind that comes in a can) is probably more like Ai3Cr.  Remember that, whenever reporting a formula for a non-carbon containing compound, you need to group all like elements together and put them in alphabetical order by elemental symbol!

This unique periodic table combines art with science. In addition to giving nomenclature and physical property information for each element, each chemical has a piece of visual art associated with it.

Gives a ton of information on the properties of the elements.  Includes, unfortunately (unless you want to buy a periodic table tie or T-shirt) some advertizing, but the science greatly outweighs the inconvenience of the ads.  Also allows some visualization of things like atomic radii.

Click on any element to see a wide range of physical property data on each.  There are also data visualization (make charts or graphs of data points), as well as periodic table games and other fun stuff.
