 The Arctic Portal has launched a new publications archive, named Arctic Portal Library. The objective of the Arctic Portal Library is to maintain a comprehensive collection of Arctic relevant scientific and educational material. The main focus is on material produced or published within the scope of IPY 2007-2008, the Arctic Council and the University of Arctic. In addition, material from various Arctic research programs and projects will be available in the Library.
 The International Directory of Arctic Social Scientists (IDASS) is an international project where the aim is to provide participants with an online, updatable, searchable database of the organizations and individuals conducting social science research in the Arctic. IDASS establishes a tool to aid in creating interdisciplinary and/or multi-national research teams. The IDASS represents a significant contribution by providing a mechanism to involve several disciplinary perspectives, transcend national research priorities, and expand the participation of indigenous peoples in Arctic social science research. The Arctic research institutes database is maintained by the Arctic Centre of the University of Lapland in Finland and contains information on research and education institutions which are dealing with the Arctic or Antarctic.
This database contains information on approximately 35 000 documentary films from the Barents region, mainly from Murmansk Oblast, Arkhangelsk region and Finnish Lapland . Information in database is mainly in English, but Authors and Orignal Titles are mentioned also in Russian and in Finnish accordingly. Detailed information with scene by scene description and a preview is available from more than 1000 digitised films. Films are from the collections of TV Murman, TV Pomorye Archangelsk and YLE Finland. The digitised films can be viewed at the library of the Arctic Centre, University of Lapland. The database is built and maintained by the Information Service of the Arctic Centre.
RÁDJU -The Sami Research and Project Database. This database is collected between the years 2005-2007 and it contains information from over 200 completed or on-going projects. The projects are dealing with the Sami people or the Sami areas. The projects in the database were carried out by different institutions and researchers and represent different disciplines. The database is in English. This database will later be developed to include information on other indigenous peoples in the Arctic. The database is maintained by the Arctic Indigenous Peoples and Sami Research Office and the Information Service of the Arctic Centre.
 Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme Project directory. The Project Directory Database currently contains information about 641 projects. 268 of these have been tagged as being especially relevant to the AMAP community.
 Within the International Polar Year (IPY), there are over 200 projects with thousands of scientists from over 60 nations examining a wide range of physical, biological and social research topics. In the IPY Project Database is a comprehensive list of all the projects of the International Polar Year, 2007-2009.
