This is a joint effort initiated in July 2008 with the participation of several Bolivian institutions including the Universidad Mayor de San Andres, the Program for Strategic Research in Bolivia, the Bolivian Catholic University, the Bolivian Association of Biomedical Magazine Publishers, and the Vice-Ministry for Science and Technology, with support from the Pan American Health Organization’s Bolivia office.

The site’s Executive Coordination is provided by the Vice-Ministry for Science and Technology through the Bolivian System for Scientific and Technological Information (SIBICyT). Technical Coordination is provided by the Universidad Mayor de San Andres.

The SciELO project is an initiative of the Foundation for Support to Research of the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil (FAPESP) and the Latin American and Caribbean Center for Information on Health Sciences (BIREME). It will include the development of a common methodology for preparation, storage, dissemination and evaluation of scientific literature in electronic format.

The www.SciELO.org site integrates and provides access to the network of SciELO sites, where you can browse existing SciELO collections or do searches at the level of a particular country.

The site will be constantly updated in form and content as the project progresses.

The interface also provides access to the full text of articles via an index of authors, table of contents, or search format by elements of the article such as name of author, words in the title, topics and words of the full text.
