Peter Suber from Open Access News tells us about a new academic search engine called BASE (Bielefeld Academic Search Engine). It discloses - according the press release he quotes - "more than 2,3 Mio. documents of 130 online - resources, incl. many scholarly full text archives, accessible through the international protocol of the Open Archives Initiative (OAI). Documents are mainly freely available and can be searched by bibliographic data or full text."
