User agreement

You certify to the following before you use SciFinder Scholar.
  1. I am a current faculty or administrative staff member, or officialy registered student of the University of Denver;

  2. I will use SciFinder Scholar only for my own academic research done in the course of pursuing my degree, or in instructing my students, or, in the course of my own research funded by the government or a non-profit foundation and intended for publication in the publicly available literature;

  3. I will NOT use SciFinder Scholar for commercial research; for Example, research that is done under a funding or consultant contract where the results are delivered to a for-profit organization, or for research that involves patentability searching. If I require SciFinder for commercial purposes, I will have the search done using a commercial account by contacting CAS and having them perform a search for me, or by acquiring and using the commercial SciFinder product;

  4. I will use my search results in the ordinary course of academic research and acknowledge that I may store search results in electronic form, provided that at any one time, I store no more than 5,000 records. I may share search results in a limited, reasonable way with other University students or faculty working on the same project, but I will not aggregate my electronic search results with anyone else. I will delete stored records when I no longer need them for the relevant research project, or after the completion of my degree program, whichever comes first. If I need to use search results beyond what is described here, I will contact my University Key Contact [Joseph Kraus, Science Librarian, University of Denver, (jokraus@du.edu, 303-871-4586)] to discuss and obtain permission. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I AM NOT PERMITTED TO DISTRIBUTE ANY CAS DATA OR SCIFINDER SCHOLAR, FOR COMMERCIAL GAIN OR OTHERWISE, OUTSIDE THE UNIVERSITY OF DENVER OR TO THIRD PARTIES.

  5. I acknowledge that the University of Denver has entered into a license agreement with CAS to provide me with access to SciFinder Scholar, and that violation of the license by any user could result in a termination of the license for all users.

  6. I will contact the University of Denver's Key Contact [Joseph Kraus, Science Librarian, University of Denver, (jokraus@du.edu, 303-871-4586)] with any questions related to the use of SciFinder Scholar.
