CISTI - Université de Montréal partnership

Press release blurbage

Ottawa, May 12, 2006 – The Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information (CISTI) and the Université de Montréal (UdeM) have developed a joint project to assess the feasibility of using Canada's scientific infostructure (Csi) as an archive for UdeM licensed e-journals.

CISTI's Csi program is responding to the Canadian research community's need for seamless, universal and permanent access to digital information by building a national information and technology infrastructure or "infostructure."

The "infostructure" idea includes both content and services (e.g. Web Services).
