Oxford and Boston,15th December 2009 - Credo Reference, the award-winning
online reference library, has signed an agreement with the Organisation for
Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to integrate the OECD Factbook
2010 into the Credo collection. This is the first OECD title to be made
available on Credo.
The OECD Factbook 2010 is a key reference tool in economic and policy
issues. The most comprehensive and dynamic statistical annual from the OECD,
it contains extensive information, as well as graphs and tables for more
than 100 indicators covering a wide range of areas. Topics include economy,
agriculture, education, energy, environment, foreign aid, health and quality
of life, industry, communications, population, trade, and taxation. With the
new agreement, the Factbook's content will now be accessible and completely
cross-searchable by researchers worldwide, within Credo's collection of more
than 440 titles.
"We're very pleased to incorporate this key OECD resource into the Credo
Reference platform," commented Toby Green, Head of OECD Publishing. "Since
Credo has such an extensive global reach, integrating the OECD Factbook's
statistics and content into Credo will provide new connections and context
for researchers worldwide."
"It's great to be adding another content-rich title to our offerings, and at
the same time to welcome OECD to the Credo family of over 70 publishers,"
added John G. Dove, Credo Reference President. "Credo Reference very
carefully chooses the titles we incorporate into our service to be sure we
provide balance in every subject area. This OECD title helps enhance the
economic and political science areas of our service."
