OCLC will contact subscribers directly with details about reimbursement for unused portions of their existing subscriptions to the database. Libraries that support research in the sciences may wish to use other databases available through BCR and OCLC FirstSearch that index much of the same content as Basic BIOSIS. Related databases in the field of science include:

• Biological and Agricultural Index (indexes approximately 40 percent of the same content as Basic BIOSIS)
• Environmental Sciences and Pollution Management (indexes approximately 57 percent of the same content as Basic BIOSIS)

Together, the Biological and Agricultural Index and Environmental Sciences and Pollution Management databases cover approximately 97 percent of the 395 journals indexed in Basic BIOSIS.

If your library would like to subscribe to these databases, please contact BCR's Maura Dunn, mdunn@bcr.org or (800) 397-1552.
