Cairn.info is a French-language web portal, founded in 2005, containing scholarly materials in the humanities and social sciences. Much of the collection is in French, but it also includes an English-language international interface to facilitate use by non-francophones. Primary research areas include communications, economics, education, geography, history, literature, linguistics, philosophy, political science, law, psychology, sociology, and cultural studies. The site provides gratis open access Lock-green.svg to some publications. [1] [2]

Contents

The site originated with materials from four major French and Belgian publishing houses: Éditions Belin, De Boeck  [ fr ], La Découverte  [ fr ] and Éditions Érès  [ fr ]. [3] Bibliothèque nationale de France joined in 2006. It has since expanded to include publications from multiple other publishers, including extensive collections of French-language journals – 150,000 journal articles and 4000 books.
