Ingenta, the global research gateway, is to develop SourceOECD, a unique portal giving single-point access to the full-text of the complete catalogue of books, reports, statistics and journals published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). For a single subscription price,libraries, companies and organisations can buy unlimited access to OECD publications – allowing concurrent readership at users' desktops right across their institution.
Toby Green, Head of Marketing at OECD, comments: "With SourceOECD we are exploiting the power of the Internet, using Ingenta's technology, to provide a single, seamless portal to all our publications, regardless of their original format or type. No longer will librarians have to segment their buying of our materials into different format-driven budgets. Nor will readers have to jump between different sites to find the information they need from the OECD. I'm sure that this way of selling specialised publications of differing types will catch on with other publishers."
The OECD is one of the world's largest and most reliable sources of authoritative statistical, economic and social data. It researches social changes and evolving patterns in education, development, trade, environment,agriculture, technology, taxation and much more. SourceOECD users will be able to access the collected data, research and analysis, which is published in the form of approximately 250 databases, studies, books and periodicals a year.
"Inter-governmental organisations are significant publishers of reports and data, and yet much of their output is hard to track down", says Don Klein, Ingenta's e-Communities Programme Director. "With Ingenta's technology and experience in online research, we can work with these organisations to enable readers to find and retrieve this material in a flexible, online form wherever they are in the world."
