WorldWideScience.org now searches 52 databases and portals from 56 countries. The three latest resources are Sri Lanka Journals Online, Indonesia Journals Online, and the European Organization for Nuclear Research CERN Document Server.

WorldWideScience.org is intended to accelerate international scientific progress by serving as a single, sophisticated point of access for diverse scientific resources and expertise from nations around the world.

Sri Lanka Journals Online is a database of journals published in Sri Lanka, and is supported by the International Network for the Availability of Science Documents. Indonesia Journals Online is supported by the Indonesian National Department of Education. The CERN Document Server has nearly 1 million records, with 360,000 full-text documents of interest to researchers working in particle physics and related areas. The database covers preprints, articles, books, journals, and a significant volume of multimedia.

The People’s Republic of China is another significant addition to WorldwideScience.org in recent months with the addition of a database from the Institute of Scientific and Technical Information of China (ISTIC).
