The Illinois College of Optometry Library is pleased to offer a subscription to its proprietary VisionCite journal citation database to all HSLI institutional members.
VisionCite Journal Article Citation Database
VisionCite is a citation database of vision-related journal articles developed and maintained by the Illinois College of Optometry Library. It now includes over 425,000 citations from the later 1980’s through 2024. Articles from 114 medical, ophthalmic, optic, optometric, and other vision-related journal subscriptions are indexed by the ICO Library. Approximately 12,000 new entries are added each year.
It is recommended that VisionCIte is used in conjunction with PubMed to ensure more complete accessibility. Institutions will be asked to provide their IP ranges (including EZProxy and Open Athens) to activate a subscription. Your users will be granted access without having to log into the interface. If linking is from your website or from LibGuides, a URL prefix will be needed for off campus access.
We are offering an annual institution membership for the low price of $1,500 for unlimited access to your constituents. We’d also be happy to e-mail our brochure to anyone who may be interested. If you’d like a free, no-obligation 30-day trial or would like to activate a subscription, please contact me, at cweber@ico.edu, by Thursday, October 31.
