Bernier, Charles L. – Journal of Chemical Documentation, 1972
Techniques, media, and systems for making organized data available exist, but have not been used extensively enough. Reasons for failure to use these are explored and recommendations made for extraction by authors at time of writing, centralized organization, and publication through existing organization. Datum signatures are described. (50…
