Algeria flag on a world map.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, 20th February 2020: Users in Algeria can now subscribe to ZendyPlus and access more than 120,000 scientific publications, covering medicine, engineering, business and other subjects including top titles such as Science, Harvard Business Review and many more!

Let’s pretend you’re an independent learner, looking for the latest research in chemistry. Recent records show that a year’s subscription to reputable journal comes to around $358. However, access to one journal is rarely enough. Let’s look at the subscription costs for some other journals. If you were to look at more specific journals in genetics and biotechnology these would come to an average of $250 each, bringing your total up to $858 per year, $71 (8549.47 DZD) per month with access to only 3 journals.

These prices make scientific discovery inaccessible to most people without institutional access! One has to either pay exorbitant amounts for accessing quality research or find a way to source the findings directly from the author which is usually a longer route.

With the current environmental, social, and political turmoil across the globe, we have a chance to form a global brain, and move towards a more knowledgeable tomorrow. However, we’ve been stuck struggling to access research. This is where the need for Zendy was born from.” – Founder and CEO, Knowledge E, Kamran R. Kardan.

About Zendy

Zendy is an online platform created to provide individuals with access to scholarly research and literature. Zendy originates from the notion of building a more knowledgeable world, as there has never been a time where easy, affordable access to content has been more needed. Current scholarly databases exist behind crippling paywalls or require university facilitated access, which is a challenge for individuals across the globe not affiliated with institutions. Access to scientific publications is particularly troublesome in developing countries, where many universities cannot afford the subscription databases required for advancing research and studies. Zendy is working to remove barriers from scholarly discovery to make academic literature affordable and accessible to everyone, all academic and non-academic professionals, students, and knowledge enthusiasts. Zendy is developed by Knowledge E in a growing collaboration with researchers, students, institutions, and publishers to facilitate the democratisation of knowledge.

Zendy is now available in Algeria, Jordan and Morocco with the rest of Africa and Middle East to follow in 2020.
