FIZ Karlsruhe has launched an English-language version of its Io-port informatics portal offering centralised access to more than two million computer science publications. The German version of the portal went online in January 2006.

Io-port.net pools information from worldwide informatics databases CCSB, CompuScience, DBLP and LeaBib. It also provides exclusive access to all texts from the Lecture Notes in Informatics series published by German society Gesellschaft fA1/4r Informatik.

According to FIZ Karlsruhe, an important element of the service is to offer sustained access to these computer science publications for the first time.

Company representative Gerhard Herlan said: "The community itself has been collecting and offering information on publications in informatics in various projects before. However, the continuity in service was not always guaranteed. Gesellschaft fA1/4r Informatik, together with FIZ Karlsruhe as a longstanding producer of the CompuScience database, saw the need to combine the various sources under a single umbrella."
