SYDNEY, 19 March 2013 - The Intellectual Property & Science business of Thomson
Reuters, the world's leading provider of intelligent information for businesses

purchasing agreement that allows 36 members access to the Thomson Reuters Web of
Science database for three additional years. This ensures that researchers have
access to high quality scientific literature. This renewal marks the 10(th) year
of the partnership with Thomson Reuters.

"Today marks a significant milestone for the scholarly research community in
Australia," said Christopher Kibarian, president, Thomson Reuters IP & Science.
"Leading academic institutions across the continent are endorsing the value they
