Our aim is to develop an open source standardized online platform, the Open Encyclopedia System, for building and maintaining online encyclopedias in the fields of humanities and social sciences that provide readers worldwide free and unrestricted online access to scientific content (Open Access).
Scholarpedia is a peer-reviewed open-access encyclopedia written and maintained by scholarly experts from around the world. Scholarpedia is inspired by Wikipedia and aims to complement it by providing in-depth scholarly treatments of academic topics.
