"Knovel: a technical information portal for the engineering community"
Gary Kearns, Knovel Managing Director - EMEA
 

Knovel provides a Web-based application integrating technical information with analytical and search tools to drive innovation and deliver answers engineers can trust. Knovel users include thousands of engineers and applied scientists from more than 700 organizations worldwide, including 74 of the Fortune 500 companies and more than 400 leading universities.

Knovel offers reference works and databases from more than 100 leading publishers and professional societies including AIAA, AIChE, ASME and NACE. It is the go-to resource for thousands of engineers and scientists who need to quickly and confidently research and analyze critical data.

Knovel’s tools including its Interactive Tables and Graphs not only help users to find the information hidden in complex graphs, equations and tables quickly, but also analyze and manipulate data as easily as sorting a spread sheet. Using either simple keywords or full Boolean queries, Knovel searches across different data sets to find the information engineers need, however deeply it may be buried.

Knovel has been recognized as one of the E-Content 100 companies that matter most in the digital content industry. In January 2013, Knovel was acquired by Elsevier.
