With the help of generous discounts from large publishing houses, IVSL currently offers students, faculty members, and research scientists access to the full text of over 17,000 journal titles, online courses, databases, and specialized resources. It also serves seven leading Iraqi universities, the Ministry of Higher Education, the Ministry of Science and Technology, and a number of research institutes. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
