Welcome to Nordbib

 

Nordbib is a Nordic funding programme for research and development in the area of Open Access to scholarly and scientific information at a Nordic level.

 

The overall purpose of the Nordbib programme is to create a joint Nordic approach to Open Access and research distribution. The means are information sharing regarding policies and strategies as well as the creation of a joint information infrastructure. Such an infrastructure will strengthen and support the research infrastructure in the Nordic countries by permitting access to and publication of scientific information.
