  Download the SciFinder Scholar 2006 client to your Windows PC or Macintosh. If you are updating from a previous version (1.0, 3.0, 2000, 2001, or 2002--note there is no 2003 version) you should install the 2004 upgrade in the same directory on your computer (default is C:\sfschlr for Windows). This will retain your settings and site preferences file. If you are installing Sci Finder Scholar for the first time with version 2004, you will need to download the site.prf file and copy it to your C:\sfschlr after installing the application.

  You may also access the SciFinder Scholar client in the Homer Babbidge Library; it is loaded on all SuperHOMER workstations.
