You must read and certify to the following before downloading, installing and using SciFinder Scholar. You will be held responsible for any infringement of this agreement.

I am a current faculty or administrative staff member, or officially registered student of Georgia Tech. 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. SciFinder Scholar is not designed for patentability searching, or the comprehensive search of prior art in the context of seeking a patent. Also, using SciFinder Scholar for patentability searching is a violation of this agreement. If you require patentability searching, please contact the Georgia Tech Research Corporation's Office of Technology Licensing. 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. If I require SciFinder for commercial purposes, I will have the search done using a commercial account by contacting the librarian responsible for chemistry searches on campus, by contacting CAS and having them perform a search for me, or by acquiring and using the commercial SciFinder product. 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 Georgia Tech students or faculty working on the same project, but I will not aggregate my electronic search results with those of 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 occurs first. If I need to use search results beyond what is described here, I will contact my University Key Contact to discuss and to obtain CAS permission. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I AM NOT PERMITTED TO DISTRIBUTE ANY CAS DATA OR SCIFINDER SCHOLAR, FOR COMMERCIAL GAIN OR OTHERWISE, OUTSIDE THE UNIVERSITY OR TO THIRD PARTIES. Facilitating use or access to SciFinder Scholar by non-authorized users, including sharing my GTEL© password or other login information with anyone is also prohibited. I acknowledge that Georgia Tech 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. In addition, unauthorized use of or access to SciFinder Scholar may violate the Georgia Tech Computer and Network Usage Policy and can result in my losing access to SciFinder Scholar and/or to the Georgia Tech network. Violation of the Georgia Tech Computer and Network Usage Policy can result in disciplinary action. I will contact Georgia Tech's Key Contacts with any questions related to the use of SciFinder Scholar.
