- 3. INTRODUCTION Referencing helps to create a map of knowledge, a web of pathways in knowledge and helps extends that knowledge. It means that we don’t have to reinvent the wheel. It effect, referencing multiple knowledge exponent. Explore exciting new content from the world’s leading scientists. Nowadays many reference materials are found on the internet, and can compiled a list of links to many of them in "Reference materials" for student and researchers. Most students and researchers use dictionaries, journals, science letters, encyclopedias, magazine, and other reference materials frequently. Web pages for news papers, magazines and TV network web pages from various countries on the internet 2
- 4. CONTENT 1) Encyclopedia A book or set of books containing articles on various topics, usually in alphabetical arrangement, covering all branches of knowledge or, less commonly, all aspects of one subject. It is a type of reference work, a compendium holding a summary of information from either all branches of knowledge. Internet encyclopedia is free to access. Free content, Almost anyone who can access the site can edit almost any of its article. It is the largest and most popular general reference work. An encyclopedia is a reference work used to look up information. It is typically arranged alphabetically according to subject and can be either a broad-based reference that contains general information, or a more comprehensive work about a specific subject. it includes encyclopedia for life science , biology, human biology, ecology, botany, etc. 3
- 5. 2) News letters Materials Letters is dedicated to publishing novel, cutting edge reports of broad interest to the materials community. The journal provides a forum for materials scientists and engineers, physicists, and chemists to rapidly communicate on the most important topics in the field of materials. A Letter reports an important novel research result, but is less substantial than an Article. Letters typically occupy four printed journal pages. This format begins with an introductory paragraph (not abstract) of 150 words maximum, summarizing the background, rationale, main results and implications. This paragraph should be referenced, as in Nature style, and should be considered part of the main text, so that any subsequent introductory material avoids too much repetition of the introductory paragraph. The text is limited to 2000 words, excluding the introductory paragraph, Methods, references and figure legends. References are limited to 30. Letters include received/accepted dates and may be accompanied by supplementary information. Letters 4

The Journal of Materials Science publishes reviews, full-length papers, and short communications recording original research results on, or techniques for studying the relationship between structure, properties, and uses of materials. The subjects are seen from international and interdisciplinary perspectives covering areas including metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, electrical materials, composite materials, fibers, nanostructure materials, nanocomposites, and biological and biomedical materials. Some journals are:- Advances in Atmospheric Sciences Agricultural and Forest Meteorology International Journal of Biological Sciences Journal of Cell Biology
- 7. Journal of Molecular Biology Journal of Theoretical Biology Agronomy for Sustainable Development 6 Journal of Animal Science Journal of Soil and Water Conservation 4) Magazine A science magazine is a periodical publication with news, opinions and reports about science for a non-expert audience. A periodical publication for scientific experts, in contrast, is called a "scientific journal". Science magazines are read by non-scientists and scientists who want accessible information on fields outside their specialization. Some Indian magazine are:- Education Insider Current Science Sandarbh Science Reporter(magazine)
- 8. 7 Safari विज्ञान प्रगति (Vigyan Pragati) CONCLUSION In the field of science, reference materials are very important because they help us develop a better understanding of the processes that have shaped, and continue to shape the world around us. Use appropriate reference materials to support scientific understanding, plan and carry out scientific investigations of various types such as: systematic observations, experiments requiring the identification of variables, collecting and organizing data, interpreting data in charts, tables, and graphics, analyze information, make predictions, and defend conclusions.
