This survey is the basis from the results of an on-line bibliographic information retrieval knowledge, concerning canine distemper, FMD virus, and canine dirofilariasis. Some comments describe effective uses of biomedical and bibliographic databases. The databases used, in this survey were AGRICOLA, BIOSIS Previews, CA Search, CAB Abstracts, EMBASE, Life Sciences Collection, MEDLINE, and SciSearch. The themes were searched through DIALOG and compared by a “profile method”. There are, mainly, two expressive databases which are most useful and both are excellent-CAB Abstracts and MEDLINE. The CAB Abstracts is the superior one. Other databases have minor characters of single bibliographic searches in veterinary science. However, anyone of the eight databases is not able to retrieve more than 60% of the total relevant articles. The following characteristics are added: 1. Searchable document numbers of the system. 2. Uniqueness and relevancy of the retrieved records of each database. 3. Variety of the original documents. 4. English abstracts of the record. 5. Terminology of the record. 6. Effectiveness of searchable tags of the record of each subject search. 7. Indexing coverage of the relevant articles, which were most productive, are found in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association and pertaining to the search in canine dirofilariasis. Only CAB Abstracts and MEDLINE are indexed all relevant articles in this type of search. 8. The time lag between the record and publication date of the original articles. 9. Availability of the original articles in Japan. 10. More suggestions about the on-line bibliographic subject searching. Also, stressed is the importance of non-journal information and cited references in various printed documents.
