CRIStin

CRIStin (Current Research Information System in Norway) is the national research information system of Norway, and is owned by the Ministry of Education and Research. CRIStin documents all scholarly publications by Norwegian researchers, and complements the BIBSYS database, which focuses on books. The CRIStin system includes the Norwegian Scientific Index. CRIStin is the successor of the earlier Forskdok, which was originally established by the University of Oslo. Forskdok was renamed Frida in 2003 and became a national system, named CRIStin, in 2010. CRIStin is the first database of its kind worldwide.
