[WEB4LIB] Re: "value added" engines

[Terence K. Huwe]

There's an interesting product that is slated to roll out in '99 called the
KnowledgeCite Library.  It features a very powerful inter-disciplinary
search feature that enables the user to search multiple databases, but it
also allows searches that utilize the native thesauri of various
disciplines.  There's a sample on their web at

http://www.knowledgecite.com

Take a look!  Terry Huwe, Institute of Industrial Relations Library, UCB
