Open Research Europe has been accepted for indexation on Inspec, the leading discovery tool for physics, computer science and engineering publications. Upon passing peer review, articles published on Open Research Europe will be findable on Inspec, making Open Research Europe content more easily discoverable.

For more than 50 years, Inspec, created by the Institution of Engineering & Technology (IET), has been an essential discovery tool for numerous institutions worldwide. Open Research Europe content will be included alongside over 21 million records from over 4,500 global physics, computer science and engineering journals, preprints, conference proceedings and videos.

“The inclusion of Open Research Europe in Inspec marks another significant step towards establishing Open Research Europe as a key publishing platform for publications stemming from research funded under Horizon Europe and Horizon 2020 the EU Framework Programmes from Research and Innovation” commented Kostas Glinos, Head of Unit Open Access in the European Commission. “It highlights the excellent work of both the authors and reviewers and gives them the recognition they deserve” added Kelly Woods, Senior Associate Publisher, F1000.
