Scirus indexes Wageningen University and Research Centre’s Institutional Repository

Elsevier announced today that its free science-specific search engine, Scirus, has further expanded its repository search service in Europe through a partnership with Wageningen University and Research Centre (Wageningen UR) , to index its repository. This is the first partnership of this kind for Scirus in the Netherlands.

The Wageningen Yield database ( WaY) consists of a combination of bibliographic and full text records related to agriculture, the specialization of the University. Scirus has indexed WaY’s approximately 7,100 full text documents and added this content to Scirus.com, making it available to Scirus’ user base worldwide. The majority of these documents are in English with a small number in Dutch, and their content includes theses, articles, preprints/technical reports, books and patents.
