Nereus

Access to the economics resources

Nereus is integrating access to the economics resources of key libraries, academic publications and other online resources in Europe and beyond. It is a follow-up to the European Commission projects Decomate I & Decomate II.

From September 2007 till February 2010, Nereus managed the European funded project "Network of European Economists Online" (NEEO). In this project existing research resources such as RePEc and new content of excellence from over 1000 top economics scholars, have been unlocked through the Economists Online portal.

Book references, articles, working papers, conference proceedings, reports, government publications, statistics, statistics, as well as other web resources have been made openly available online. Sources are provided with as much full-text and raw data as possible. And in a number of languages, including English, German, Dutch, French, Italian, Spanish and Russian.

More information about the NEEO project can be found here.
