This presentation will review developments in text searching, natural language processing and the semantic web that enable structures to be automatically extracted from documents and fed to chemoinformatics tools like docking, cluster analysis and similarity searching. Examples will be given of the use of web service workflows for performing scientifically interesting tasks on structures extracted from literature, and the potential future directions for the exploitation of text and literature information will be discussed.
