The Clarivate company extended the opportunity for Ukrainian scientists to use the Web of Science database until the end of 2022. For institutions which have previously accessed Web of Science, it will be preserved in its existing format. Other institutions wishing to obtain it should contact the State Scientific and Technical Library of Ukraine.
In addition, access to the Scopus database owned by the Elsevier company will be maintained for Ukrainian institutions. Institutions that have previously connected through DNTB of Ukraine, as well as those that have registered on the Research4Life platform, have this opportunity. In addition to the Scopus database, the Elsevier company, within the framework of the Research4Life project, gave Ukrainian scientists access to the full-text resources of the ScienceDirect database, and a number of medical resources, such as: ClinicalKey, Complete Anatomy, Embase, and Osmosis.
It is important that on the Research4Life platform, publishers of scientific literature have opened a free opportunity for Ukrainian institutions to use their electronic resources until the end of 2022. Ukrainian scientists have already received free and convenient access through Research4Life to over 114,000 books, about 40,000 journals, dozens of databases, including available full-text resources of leading publishers of scientific literature.
To date, more than 500 institutions have registered or renewed their registration on Research4Life.
Publishers-partners of Research4Life plan to extend access to resources for scientists from Ukraine at least until the end of 2024 - to transfer Ukraine within the scope of the Research4Life project from group B to group A (as you know, institutions from countries of group A do not need to pay for the use of literature).
