Abstract:

An importance of Internet as a source of professional information is growing. The Open Access movement to scientific information is one of the reasons of this trend and significantly improves usability of the web in professional and academic quarters. However information overload, web heterogeneity and specific information needs of users make an efficiency of information retrieval difficult. Need of „ever smarter“ searching tools and the second generation of web services denoted as „Web 2.0“ changes the face of Internet as complex and is reflected also in area covering professional, scientific and technical information. This poster deals with new, free accessible, as well as licensed information retrieval systems and with web services collective denoted as „Web 2.0“ in scope of the scholarly information in biomedical sciences. They are presented search engines playing upon clustering and visualization of found documents, deep indexing, social bookmarking, folksonomy and new applications developed via APIs (application programming interfaces), as are alternative user´s interfaces of biomedical databases or so called mushups. The concrete examples of retrieval systems, interfaces and services are demonstrated. This work was supported by a project 1M06014 MŠMT ČR and by a project IAA701010606 GA AV ČR.
