Using the Internet Journal of Chemistry
Registration
Registration for the Internet Journal of Chemistry for the entire
1998 is optional. There will be no subscription fees for 1998.
So why is there an option for registering? As will be described
in the next section, the Internet Journal of Chemistry is provided
using a specialized web server that allows each individual reader to customize
the layout and features of the journal. By registering for the journal,
your particular journal configuration will be saved and thereby available
upon your next visit to the journal.
We will not be selling or distibuting in any way the list of registrants.
This option is available simply as a convenience to you now and to demonstrate
how access to the journal in the future will appear.
Customizing Your Journal
One area of the journal that we strongly encourage you to explore is the
link labeled "Personal Preferences" found in the section just below
the IJC logo. This link will present you with a number of different topics,
under which you will be able to customize the journal presentation. Very
briefly, these options are:
-
Articles
-
Allow you to determine how hypermolecules will be delivered, set on-the-fly
unit conversions and standard units to use.
-
References
-
Alow you to set how reference numbers appear and the layout of the citations.
-
Layout
-
Allow you to define a frameset and target the location of the references.
-
Colors
-
Allow you to et the color of the background, text, and table rows.

We encourage you to test out these options and customize the journal to
your specifications. We will be adding more customization options in the
future and welcome any suggestions or comments.
Citing an Article in IJC
Citations of articles are dependent upon the style of the journal but as
a guideline on how to cite an article that appears in the Internet
Journal of Chemistry, the following example may prove helpful. The
citation to the first article in IJC might appear in an ACS journal
as:
Zhao, M.; Rice, S. A. Internet J. Chem., 1998, 1,
1 URL: http://www.ijc.com/articles/1998v1/1. |
Please note that the URL strongly mimics the citation format in that it
explicitly includes the year, volume and article number.
The Internet Journal of Chemistry will be cited by Chemical
Abstracts. The CAS citation to the first article of IJC should
appear like the following (we thank David Weisgerber of CA for this
information and note that it is tentative):
Self-consistent Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations of the Structure in
the Liquid and Liquid-Vapor Interfaces of Gallium and Aluminum. Zhao, Meishan;
Rice, Stuart A. (The James Franck Institute and Department of Chemsitry,
The University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637). Internet J. Chem.
[online computer file] 1998, 1(Article 1), no pp. given (Eng), InfoTrust.
