The future of HINARI now secured
A wide-ranging independent review of HINARI was recently conducted and many thanks if you participated in this. The review showed that HINARI is viewed as an important resource and is making a valuable contribution to research and teaching. As a result of this review, the partners agreed that HINARI, and its sister programmes AGORA and OARE, should be continued at least to meet the time scale of the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals. We are delighted to report that this means that the programmes will continue at least until 2015. The review also made several other key recommendations which we will be following up on and working to improve. These included the need for improved authentication processes which would make it easier for users to access the resources available, the need for increased training and promotion, and a more formal organization structure. More information on these planned developments will follow. (The HINARI Team)
