GeoRef

Abstract

The GeoRef database, offered by EBSCO, was originally established by the American Geosciences Institute in 1966. This reference tool provides comprehensive access to more than 50 full-text international geoscience journals with mapping capabilities. Additional resources include environmental studies providing access to research and other literature, including maps, books, theses, journal articles, reports, and conference papers. Additionally, GeoRef is keyword searchable across millions of links to Web-based geoscience resources. Both the GeoRef database and the GeoRef Thesaurus are components of a larger database, GeoScienceWorld. The content of the GeoRef database grows at a rate of approximately 4.2% per year.
