E-Science Server at LANL is an electronic product created to promote scientific communication and collaboration. It manages content and delivers electronic journals, conference papers, and standards through a standard web browser interface.

E-Science Server has three components—the electronic content, the content management software, and the value added by integrating content in a single package.

The electronic content provided by E-Science Server currently includes

• journals: scientific and technical journals distributed by Academic Press, ACS, Elsevier Science, IEE, IEEE, Institute of Physics, Kluwer, Springer and Wiley.
• conferences from IEEE/IEE
• standards from IEEE.

The E-Science Server user can make use of this content through

• browsing - for example scanning the Table of Contents of a journal issue or conference proceedings
• searching (simple, advanced and expert modes)
• re-executing saved searches
• setting up alerts for automatic notification of new journal issues or new topical content
• setting up personal preferences.
  

It runs on a locally modified version of the software provided by Science Server LLC.

Future plans include the addition of more journals and older backfiles of journals.

Access to E-Science Server at LANL is limited to staff of LANL and other subscribing institutions. Institutions interested in subscribing should see the library Electronic Products page for more information.
