Abstract and Index and Web Discovery Services IEEE Partners
Introduction
This document is intended to provide a broad overview of partnering relationships with Abstract and Indexing Services and
Web Discovery Services for which IEEE includes content. While this report is intended to provide readers with information on
IEEE content indexed and in what service, there are several things to keep in mind:
Services identified in this report do not cover everything in IEEEs Xplore Digital Library either because IEEE has not
opened all content to these services, or content available was not selected by a partner;
Some services require evaluation and selection with titles added to and deleted regularly in order to maintain
relevance to the products in which they may be covered. And while IEEE may provide a data feed for a particular
subscription package as noted in the tables provided, some titles may not have been chosen;
Most partners update their products at varying intervals and many Abstract and Indexing Services do not update
harvested metadata beyond the initial load;
As a result, and given that these services and our agreements with these partners can and do change, readers of this report are
encouraged to contact Nancy Blair-DeLeon, Senior Publishing Relations Manager at n.blair-deleon@ieee.org with specific
questions.
How to Use
This document separately defines the two types of services IEEE content is included in followed by a list of IEEE content in
their respective products.

Page |2

Abstract & Indexing Services

Abstract and indexing Services provide searchable database products, which enable users to search for and find relevant
information including peer-reviewed journals, books, reports, and other types of content. Unlike Web Scale Discovery Services,
these on-line products harvest metadata including abstracts from publishers and other partner-types into large repositories or
indexes. Search results often include abstracts or a brief summary of a research article that is used to assist the user to quickly
ascertain the relevance on the returned query. Most of these products enable users the opportunity to view or purchase the
full-text article at the publishers website using link resolvers. Abstract and indexing services can include a wide breadth of
information or can specialize in specific subject areas such as biosciences or humanities.

Web Scale Discovery Services

Web Scale Discovery Services provide institutions a commercial application to enable library environment users the ability
through a single search box from the users desktop to search local and external licensed content collections by preharvesting
and centrally indexing content sourced across multiple silos, including physical holdings, such as books and DVDs, local

electronic content, such as digital image collections and institutional repository materials; and remotely hosted content
purchased or licensed by the library, such as e-books and publisher or aggregator content for full text and abstracting and
indexing resources. Through the use of link resolvers, users are then able to discover article level licensed content.
