Between governments and researchers : OECD information, a two-way flow

The OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) both gathers and disseminates information. The presentation will demonstrate some of the information that the OECD makes available to researchers all over the world, concentrating on material published via the Internet. In addition, there will be a discussion of work that the OECD Central Library is doing to gather information to aid researchers working in the organisation. These include the provision of information files on certain “horizontal projects” which entail the Library providing periodical articles, electronic documents and links to relevant Internet sites. Some of these latter will also be of interest to researchers working on similar topics
