Approximately 5,000 journal titles are indexed in PASCAL which corresponds to a worldwide coverage. French and European literature is particularly well represented in PASCAL. About 500,000 new records are added each year. References to theses (mainly French), and to conference proceedings are also included. Over 75% of the documents have an abstract, mostly in French, some in English, and all have an English-language title. PASCAL is well indexed to aid subject retrieval in this multidisciplinary file. Several classification schemes are used and controlled descriptors from a vocabulary of over 80,000 terms are added in English, French, and Spanish.
