The International Spectroscopic Database (IS-DB) went live on 19 May 2003. Following over seven years fighting for funding and receiving the EU EuroSpec grant1 in 2002 the team are pleased to announce that the first version of the international digital archive for spectroscopic data was switched on for data deposition in May.

As regular readers of this column will know there have been reports at irregular intervals on the ongoing attempt to establish an international spectroscopic data bank. The concept is based on the successful protein crystallographic data bank (PDB) into which the key electronic coordinate data is placed following almost ever peer-reviewed protein crystallographic publication. This databank is then made available to the crystallographic community and is a key resource for those active in this field.

In the final article of this series on new Internet-based services for the chemist/spectroscopist, I will be taking a quick look at the ACD/Labs I-Lab online web-based program range.
