BioOne
BioOne was created in mid-1999 by five collaborating organizations: The American Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS), SPARC (the Scholarly Publishing & Academic Resources Coalition), The University of Kansas, Greater Western Library Alliance (formerly Big 12 Plus Libraries Consortium), and Allen Press, Inc.
BioOne Partners.
BioOne is the product of innovative collaboration between scientific societies, libraries, academe and the private sector. BioOne brings to the Web a uniquely valuable aggregation of the full-texts of high-impact bioscience research journals of small societies and non-commercial publishers. BioOne provides integrated, cost-effective access to a thoroughly linked information resource of interrelated journals focused on the biological, ecological and environmental sciences. For each accepted journal, BioOne presents the full texts of all peer-reviewed papers (and all corresponding tables, graphics and illustrations), as well as other primary information of value to researchers. The BioOne database provides timely access to the journals included. For most journals, new issues will be posted to the site before printed copies are produced. From the outset, the database included volumes from 2000 forward. The Arabidopsis Book (TAB), ISSN: 1543-8120, this electronic book is an attempt at a new mode of communication between researchers and a new model for scientific publishing. TAB in its initial stage is a compilation of over 100 invited chapters, each reviewing in detail an important and interesting aspect of the plant Arabidopsis thaliana, with reference to what is known in other plants and in other kingdoms. TAB is available only via the Internet and will be available free of charge. The American Society of Plant Biologists is providing funds for the mounting and maintenance of the book on the Internet as a public service. View and search full-text at BioOne.
