OCLC has announced a sponsorship agreement with CORE (COnnecting REpositories), expanding OCLC’s commitment to supporting open access research infrastructure worldwide. This partnership builds on OCLC’s recent agreements with organizations including the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF), the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), and the European Bureau of Library, Information and Documentation Associations (EBLIDA).

CORE is a not-for-profit service that provides access to millions of open access research papers in their comprehensive database. The service supports libraries, researchers, and institutions in discovering and accessing scholarly content.

“At CORE, we are deeply grateful for OCLC’s sponsorship and their recognition of the value we bring to the global open research ecosystem,” said Petr Knoth, Head of CORE. “As a not-for-profit initiative committed to indexing the world’s open access research, we rely on organisations like OCLC who share our vision of accessible, interoperable scholarly communication. Their support helps us sustain the critical infrastructure that libraries, repositories, and researchers depend on.”

“We welcome the opportunity to expand our relationship with CORE and support their vital work in making open access research more discoverable and accessible,” said Eric van Lubeek, Managing Director, EMEA & APAC, OCLC. “This partnership reflects our commitment to strengthening the global infrastructure that libraries and researchers depend on.”
