Finding Research
From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites.
And to establish facts, one needs Data.

. . . and again why . . .
By creating metadata for: Datasets
In the same industry standard formats as . . .Book chapters
andJournal articles
Authors will be able to cite . . .
Publishers will be able to link . . .
Discovery systems will be able to find . . .
Librarians will be able to catalogue . .
.
Datasets alongside published outputs . . .
. . . to the benefit of Everyone
And here's how . . . . . . it can be done
OECD:• is working with others on
Publishing Standards for Datasets
• is working with CrossRef on citation standards for dynamic objects
• Will be pushing metadata for datasets to Scopus, Google Scholar et al
