IEEE has released several new research options for its IEEE Xplore online delivery platform. IEEE Xplore is the online delivery system which powers IEEE online subscriptions for organizations and individuals, including collections like the IEEE/IEE Electronic Library. It contains more than 1,100,000 documents from IEEE journals, magazines, transactions, and conferences, all active IEEE standards, and journals and conference proceedings from Europe’s Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE).
New features available through IEEE Xplore 2.1 include:

1) The metadata of all current book titles from Wiley-IEEE Press and Wiley-IEEE Computer Society Press are now available to all users browsing or searching IEEE Xplore. Books may be purchased through a link to the John Wiley and Sons web site.
2) The display of bibliographic information has been enhanced on various pages throughout the site. The Digital Object Identifier (DOI) and part numbers (identifies periodicals issues and conference proceedings volumes that have multiple parts) are now displayed on all tables of contents, search results, Abstracts, and AbstractPlus pages.
3) Individual IEEE Standards are now available for purchase through links in IEEE Xplore. The credit card purchase is fulfilled through ShopIEEE. (Previously, individual standards were only available for purchase through ShopIEEE).
4) The regularly updated OPAC (Online Public Access Catalog) list of journal and conference proceedings has been enhanced to include the publication's start and end date in IEEE Xplore, ISBN, and indication of availability in online packages. These lists provide customers with seamless links from their OPACs directly to the publications in IEEE Xplore.
