The "SESAMM" bibliographical database compiled by the Centre Technique des Industries de la Fonderie has open up a real gateway to the foundries and metallurgy fields by going online through its Internet site, http://www.ctif.com/version_us/html/sesamm.html. For over 50 years the CTIF, the foundries' research and development center based at Sčvres near Paris has had a documentation center that is one of a kind in the foundry field. There, a team of information scientists and linguistic observers has been compiling a database specializing in foundries and metallurgy to meet the expectations of its trade members. "SESAMM's" multi-criteria search engine will enable 33000 relevant bibliographical entries to be consulted in the fields of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys, metal molded parts, competing processes (plastic, forge..), innovations, markets, techniques and processes, and research and development. Document title display is free of charge, but there will be a charge for consulting detailed notes (references and abstracts). A subscription will pay for rights to access periodically published topic files that will enable subscribers to build up their own customized desk research.
The other welcome feature of this database is the trilingual glossary of specialist terms (in French, English, German), which will provide a helping hand with making bibliographical searches. SESAMM has been designed to be user-friendly and simple to use, and will be a boon to those wishing to keep abreast of technical events and find bibliographical reference.
