Background HINARI Access to Research in Health programme provides free or very low cost online access to the major journals in biomedical and related social sciences to local, not-for-profit institutions in developing countries. HINARI was launched in January 2002 for “free access” countries (Band 1). In Jan. 2003 it was launched to “low-cost" countries (Band 2). The HINARI Programme is a public-private partnership set up by WHO together with major publishers, Yale University Library and Microsoft. HINARI enables developing countries to gain access to one of the world's largest collections of biomedical and health literature. Over 6,400 journal titles are now available to health institutions in 108 countries, areas and territories benefiting many thousands of health workers and researchers, and in turn, contributing to improved world health. HINARI was launched in January 2002, with some 1500 journals from 6 major publishers: Blackwell, Elsevier Science, the Harcourt Worldwide STM Group, Wolters Kluwer International Health & Science, Springer Verlag and John Wiley, following the principles in a Statement of Intent signed in July 2001. Since that time, the numbers of participating publishers and of journals and other full- text resources has grown continuously. Today more than 180 publishers are offering more their journals. New publishers are continuing joining the programme, and the HINARI collection will continue to grow.

Eligibility (01 2012) Institutions in countries with GNI (gross national income) per capita below $1600 or HDI (human development index) less than 0.63 are eligible for free access (Band 1/Group A) Institutions in countries with GNI per capita between $1601-$5000 or HDI less than 0.67 pay a fee of $1000 per year (Band 2/Group B) Some publishers opt out of this option and do not allow access to their journals For details, see www.who.int/hinari/eligibility/en/ Initially, the GNI levels were $1000 for Band 1 and $1000-3000 for Band 2. In 2008, these levels were increased to reflect inflation since the beginning of the program in 2002. In January 2012, the human development index has been added. Consequently, 17 countries moved from Band 2 (Group B) to Band 1 (Group A).

In this world map you will clearly note where are the HINARI eligible countries.
