SciFinder Classic is Retiring

Posted on September 16, 2022November 8, 2022 by Laurie Neuerburg

If you are currently using the classic version of SciFinder, it is time to start using SciFinder-n. Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) will discontinue the “classic” SciFinder interface on Dec. 31, 2022.

SciFinder-n, will be the only SciFinder platform moving forward.

  • If you are already using SciFinder-n, you do not need to do anything.
  • Your SciFinder credentials will work with SciFinder-n. You do not need to register for a new account.
  • Any bookmarks will automatically redirect to SciFinder-n.
  • If you have saved answer sets and search alerts for the classic version of SciFinder, you will need to migrate them into SciFinder-n before Dec. 31, 2022.

To access SciFinder-n, go to the Sciences Library SciFinder guide. The link on this page will work from anywhere.

If you have any questions, or problems, please contact one of the sciences librarians here https://www.lib.uiowa.edu/sciences/contact/.

You can also learn more about SciFinder-n on the above guide, or review the following pages at CAS:

    • “Moving from SciFinder to CAS SciFinder-n” webinar recording that may be of interest during the transition phase.
    • Informative brochure about SciFinder-n.

SciFinder-n Training

Posted on January 27, 2020 by Laurie Neuerburg

SciFinder-n is the new interface for SciFinder, a searchable collection of chemical reactions, substances, and scientific literature used in chemistry, medicine, and related fields. SciFinder-n is mobile-friendly, offers more filter options compared to SciFinder, and includes an “All Search” function similar to Google. PatentPak, MethodsNow, and Retrosynthesis Plan are new tools that are available only through SciFinder-n.

The following SciFinder-n training sessions are open to all students, faculty, and staff. There is no need to register in advance. Drop-ins are welcome!

  • SciFinder-n Training – Monday, February 10, 1:30-2:30pm, Chemistry Building, room E215. Free snacks provided!
  • SciFinder-n Training – Tuesday, February 11, 9:30-10:30am, Chemistry Building, room E215. Free snacks provided!
  • SciFinder-n Training – Tuesday, February 11, 12:00-1:00pm, Seamans Center, 2001C Engineering Library. Free pizza provided!
