New Rehabilitation Database Announced
The University at Buffalo Center for International Rehabilitation Research
Information and Exchange (CIRRIE) is developing a bibliographic database
containing citations relating to rehabilitation research conducted outside
of the United States. The database is free and available on the Internet at
http://cirrie.buffalo.edu.
Disability and rehabilitation research crosses many disciplines. Relevant
information is scattered across many information resources. CIRRIE is
collecting citations from all areas of rehabilitation and compiling them
into one central source. In addition to indexing from mainstream journals,
CIRRIE includes citations to resources not readily available to U.S.
researchers, as well as to full text publications on the Internet.
Abstracts are available for most citations. The database is updated
monthly. It presently includes citations from 1996 to the present and will
eventually include citations from 1990 to the present.
CIRRIE is funded by the National Institute for Disability and Rehabilitation
Research of the U.S. Department of Education. Its mission is to facilitate
the exchange of information and expertise between researchers in the United
States and those in other countries. We invite you to visit CIRRIE at
http://cirrie.buffalo.edu and use the database as well as the other
resources available on the site.
