The new Vortal to offer services beyond the IRG
Since 2005, the InterestSub-Group on InformationResources (IRG) maintainsthe HTAi Vortal, a selectionof web resources related toHTA.
In 2011, the Vortal wasrenewed: the initialcollection of references wasdivided into three sections(HTA producers andnetworks; selected HTAresources, Careerdevelopment supportinginformation).
New functionalities andservices were also addedfor the IRG workgroups, butalso for other Interest Sub-Groups (ISGs). Thosechanges raised the need ofa new governing policy.

A new section has been developed within the Vortal to host the output from the IRG workgroup “SuRe Info”(http://www.sure-info.org).
Two dedicated page types were created:
the “publication appraisal” provides a form to describe and comment articles,
the “chapter” provides a page for guidance in information retrieval.
