Information management company Infotrieve, Inc., US, has announced a collaboration with the National Research Council's Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information (NRC-CISTI). The agreement covers the provision of document delivery and library services to the Canadian and International research communities through an exclusive five year contract.
Through this partnership, Infotrieve Canada Inc. will provide a comprehensive set of services. This includes the content sourcing and management system, Content SCM, as well as its document delivery service that seeks to leverage the over 40 million citations within Infotrieve’s proprietary database and its STM Library of managed print collections.
The addition of the NRC-CISTI Canadian national science library collection is seen to provide the research and innovation community with fast, easy access to a vast collection of STM content. The Canadian collection includes more than 50,000 serial titles, 800,000 books and conference proceedings, plus 2,000,000 technical reports and indexed journals in many languages.
NRC-CISTI has been launching various initiatives to enhance the accessibility of STM content in Canada. In July, it formed a three-way partnership with the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the US National Library of Medicine (NLM) to establish PubMed Central Canada (PMC Canada). PMC Canada will be a national digital repository of peer-reviewed health and life sciences literature, including research resulting from CIHR funding. This searchable web-based repository will be permanent, stable and freely accessible.
