DAREnet gives digital access to academic research output in the Netherlands. It is accessible from home but also from both North and South Pole. The top of the bill, the cream on the cake can be found through Cream of Science. The publications of over 200 top scientists in the Netherlands can be found here. As of May 2005 DAREnet harvests over 40,000 digital records from the Institutional repositories of sixteen institutes. DARE: a new, rapid form of communication academic research results. DAREnet is the network of Digital Academic REpositories. It is a result of the national DARE programme involving all Dutch universities and several academic and research organisations as well. Its aim is to coordinate and stimulate a network of Dutch repositories (= digital ‘treasure chests’ ) containing academic research information. It thus enhances the accessibility to and visibility of this information, both national as international. DARE is a national initiative coordinated by the SURF Foundation. This has been added to Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog. This will be added to Academic Resources 2005 Internet MiniGuide.
