The Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) and Institute of Physics
(IOP) are delighted to announce a special agreement that will make the
contents of the Institute of Physics Journal Archive between 1874 and 1998
permanently accessible to all higher and further education institutions in
the UK. The entire archive now represents some £30,000 worth of material.
The agreement will have a major impact on physics education and research in
the UK by making some of the most important discoveries of the last 130
years freely available.
The archive comprises over 110,000 articles and over 1.5 million pages of
physics research, including papers by Sir John Fleming, Sir Ernest
Rutherford, Niels Bohr, Lord Rayleigh and Sir Edward Appleton. More recent
Nobel laureates whose work appears in the Institute of Physics Journal
Archive include Harry Kroto, Herbert Kroemer, Anthony J Leggett and Vitaly
Ginzburg.
How to get free access
Full details on registering to receive the archive can be found by visiting
the JISC website at www.jisc.ac.uk/coll_ioparchive.html.
Registration for the Institute of Physics Journal Archive requires that a
licence agreement is completed and returned for eligible institutions to
receive free permanent access to the archive.
Institutions that are not already registered to receive electronic access
to IOP journals will also need to register for this service. Electronic
journal registration is simple and a registration form can be downloaded
from http://www.jisc.ac.uk/coll_ioparchive.html.
