Fachinformationszentrum Karlsruhe, also known as FIZ Karlsruhe, is a non-profit service institution and member institute of Leibniz-Gemeinschaft[1], a union of German research institutes[2]. The institute provides information services for the European academic and research community and maintains a collection of scientific databases.
The institute is perhaps best known as the provider of INKA-MATH, the original electronic version of Zentralblatt MATH, as one of the institutions[3] currently editing Zentralblatt MATH, and as the producer of the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD). Its online service STN International (Scientific & Technical Information Network), produced in partnership[4] with the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), resells over 200 scientific and patent databases including CAS REGISTRY and CAplus, Beilstein, INSPEC, Compendex, Derwent World Patents Index, INPADOC, the USPTO Genetic Sequence Database (USGENE)[5], and GENESEQ. In May 2009[6], FIZ Karlsruhe became the European marketing agent for the in-house data subscription version of the USGENE database.
