NEW DELHI, Jan. 1 (Xinhua) -- The One Nation One Subscription (ONOS) scheme was implemented in India on Wednesday to provide students and researchers from government-run higher education institutions and research and development centers with access to international scholarly journals.

"The goal is to ensure that India's academic and research communities are equipped with the best global resources, fostering innovation and enhancing the quality of research across disciplines," said an official statement issued by the Ministry of Education.

The scheme envisioned India's emergence as a leading global power driven by cutting-edge research, technological advancement, and self-sustained progress. "Through such initiatives, India is preparing to build on its rich legacy of knowledge, positioning itself at the forefront of global innovation and discovery," added the statement.

The scheme would provide access to more than 13,000 scholarly journals from 30 major international publishers. It would benefit nearly 18 million students, faculty, and researchers across disciplines such as STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), medicine, social sciences, finance and accounts, etc.

It would also provide access to high-quality scholarly publications across various fields to enhance the research capabilities of students, faculty, and researchers.

Besides, the scheme would ensure that all institutions had access to world-class research resources, which was crucial for advancing core and interdisciplinary research in the country.

The scheme would cover more than 6,300 government-managed higher education institutions and central government-managed research and development institutions across the country. Enditem
