Offer unprecedented access to international science

Other Information:

Multilingual WorldWideScience.org, http://worldwidescience.org - In summer 2010, the Department of Energy will launch Multilingual WorldWideScience.org, which will offer unprecedented access to international science. The Department helped establish WorldWideScience.org in 2008 with a number of international science organizations. Since its inception, the website has been populated with databases from 62 countries. However, as it currently stands, the website only serves English-speaking users. Multilingual WorldWideScience.org will help English speakers search non-English science databases and help non-English speakers search all databases in the language of their choice.
