What is Ei?

Ei stands for Engineering Index, an index of scientific literature in the engineering field. Ei was originally compiled by hand, and now it is computerised and becomes Ei Compendex, a bibliographic database. In China, Ei is regarded as one of the three leading indexes, and the other two are SCI (Science Citation Index) and ISTP (now CPCI-S, Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science).

Ei Compendex is available online through the Library’s Engineering Village platform. Find Ei Compendex in Database A-Z.
