追溯了从 1907 年到现在化学文摘 (CA) 的摘要和摘要的演变。科学出版的发展,主要文献的内容、形式、格式、国籍和语言的变化,从大批志愿摘要者到内部文献分析师的转变,以及向现代计算机处理的过渡,都影响了CA摘要的准备和出版。《化学摘要》的诞生源于美国化学家对欧洲摘要期刊报道美国化学文献的不满。麻省理工学院的教员试图单枪匹马地弥补这一缺陷,他们于 1895 年出版了《美国化学研究 Remew》,该书既作为《技术季刊》的一个版块发行,又单独发行。 1907 年,该出版物被内容更丰富的《化学文摘》(CA) 所取代,该杂志由美国化学会 (ACS) 主办,W. A. Noyes, Sr. 担任其第一任编辑。虽然 CA 的历史包括摘要和索引的演变,但本文将仅限于从 1907 年至今 CA 的摘要和摘要的历史。
The evolution of abstracts and abstracting for Chemical Abstracts (CA) from 1907 to the present is traced. The growth of scientific publishing, changes in the content, form, format, national origin, and language of primary documents, the shift from a large corps of volunteer abstractors to in-house document analysts, and the transition to modern computer processing have all affected the preparation and publicationof CA abstracts.Chemical Abstracts was born out of the dissatisfaction American chemists felt with coverage of the American chem-ical literature in European abstracting journals. Faculty members at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology at-tempted to remedy this deficiency single-handedly by publishing the Remew of American Chemical Research in 1895, issued both as a section of Technology Quarterly and sepa-rately. In 1907 this publication was superseded by the more extensive ChemicalAbstracts (CA), sponsored by the Am-erican Chemical Society (ACS), with W. A. Noyes, Sr., as its first editor. While the history of CA includes the evolution of both abstracts andindexes, this paper will restrict itself to the history of abstracts and abstracting at CA from 1907 to the present.
