Google Scholar This link opens in a new window
Google Scholar provides a multidisciplinary citation platform with links to free full texts. With this localized implementation, additional full texts are available for resources licensed by Rice University, and no manual setting of Rice preferences is required when accessing Scholar off-campus.
Includes a "Cited by" link at the bottom of an author search result. Includes self-citations. There might be multiple entries for one work.
Handbook of Mathematical Functions with Formulas, Graphs, and Mathematical Tables This link opens in a new window
Summary of the mathematical functions that arise in physical and engineering problems.
MathSciNet This link opens in a new window
Both bibliographic data and review texts are available from 1980-present. Bibliographic data is also available from 1940-1979.
Web of Science This link opens in a new window
A database on the Web of Knowledge platform that integrates multiple citation indexes:

Wolfram MathWorld
Comprehensive and interactive mathematics reference work.

Zentralblatt MATH This link opens in a new window
Contains more than 2.8 million bibliographic entries with reviews or abstracts drawn from more than 3500 journals and 1100 serials and covers the period from 1868 - present.

Mathematics Genealogy

The Mathematics Genealogy Project
The Mathematics Genealogy Project is a vast online database mapping the genealogy of all the mathematicians of the world. The database includes over 250,000 records of mathematicians, listing their advisers, students, and affiliated institutions.

Journal Search

This Journals search allows you to search for Fondren's journal holdings in all formats (print, online, and microfilm). Enter the title of the journal. To find journal articles, use OneSearch or a library database.

When you follow a link from the Journals search or OneSearch, you may need to enter your NetID and password to access the materials. Please see our remote access instructions for assistance in using these resources when away from campus.

Having Trouble?

JABBR: Type in journal abbreviations to find the full title of the journals you need. You will still need to come back to the Fondren website or link through Google Scholar to access the actual journal.

WorldCat: Not quite sure of the title? This catalog handles spelling errors and omissions better than OneSearch. This site also works really well with our interlibrary loan form!
