This wide range of specialties allows us to deliver insights with both depth and precision. Our Story We were there in the earliest days of commercial databases, when scientific, technical, and medical references first became accessible to corporate and professional users. TRI was among the first to provide full-text access to engineers, scientists, researchers, corporations, and government agencies. That work helped launch the modern document delivery industry and led to the birth of the Copyright Clearance Center, where we’ve been active members since the beginning. Expanding Into Specialized Research Over time, our reputation grew for tracking down the “difficult-to-acquire” document. From there, it was a natural step to broaden into business and market research. Soon, we were providing background for companies, industries, products, speeches, and even non-patent prior art searches. Our skills also proved invaluable to television shopping networks, where accuracy in facts and figures is critical. Today, our specialized research and document delivery services work together to provide unmatched support.
