Die Inis Collection Search – Einblicke und Fallbeispiele zu neuen Entwicklungen

摘要

INIS (International Nuclear Information System) is the world's largestuddatabase in the field of peaceful uses of nuclear science and is operated by the IAEAud(International Atomic Energy Agency) in collaboration with the INIS Member States.udThe Austrian INIS center is located at the Central Library of Physics and is responsibleudfor the selection and input of relevant, in Austria published literature. With over 3.3udmillion bibliographic records the INIS Collection provides access to a unique collectionudof gray literature in the field of nuclear science. This includes over 280,000 full-textuddocuments, such as, scientific and technical reports, conference protocols and patents,udwhich would be difficult to obtain elsewhere. This paper deals specifically with theudINIS Collection Search, which allows an extremely precise search result using the INISudmultilingual Thesaurus. The Thesaurus contains 30,000 terms and is available in alludthe IAEA's official languages (Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, Japanese,udSpanish and German). Access to the INIS Collection, the INIS bibliographic databaseudand to the full-text document is free of charge and via the INIS websiteudhttp://www.iaea.org/INIS possible. The INIS Collection Search is powered by Google Search Appliance, and particular attention has been paid to the usability of the search system.udINIS supports information retrieval through two basic search modes: Standard Searchudand Advanced Search. User registration for INIS Collection is provided through NUCLEUS, the common access point to the IAEA's scientific, technical and regulatoryudinformation resources. Registered INIS-users have access to a comprehensive range ofudinformation, to an “user profile” and to a “workspace”, where, among other thingsudsearch results can be saved and search queries (queries) can be managed. After audbrief general introduction about INIS and ICS selected case studies on the applicationudof ICS are shown. Last but not least, new developments related to the INIS CollectionudSearch are discussed.
