Proceedings of READIT-2009, Kalpakkam - 603 102, 29-30 Dec 2009 International Nuclear Information System (INIS) as Knowledge Repository: Discovery Tools and Retrieval Techniques C. Jayakumar*; E. Soundararajan*; V. Rajendran*; A. Amudhavalli# and M. Sai Baba* *Scientific Information Resource Division, Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research, Kalpakkam – 603 102, India #Department of Library & Information Science, University of Madras, Chennai, India ABSTRACT The success story of world’s largest bibliographic database on Nuclear Information, INIS is highlighted for its decentralised model of data input and centralised quality information processing and hosting by IAEA. Retrieval techniques were discussed with field specific search and resource discovery tools. The benefits of INIS DB becoming open access to the research community and the common public were discussed. The availability of Non Conventional Literature (NCL) in full text form with related IAEA publications have added value to the database. Information about NUCLEUS which is acting as common access point to the IAEA’s scientific, technical and regulatory information resources is also discussed. Structured Information Awareness Programme to enhance the usage and to empower the researching scientists and practicing engineers is recommended. Keywords : INIS Database, Information Retrieval (IR) Techniques, Nuclear Knowledge Portal, Knowledge Discovery Tools. 1. INTRODUCTION The development of International Information Systems like AGRIS (FAO) and INIS (IAEA) has proved to be a successful co-operative bibliographic database model over years. The agencies responsible for its growth and value has ensured the transformation of the database into a valuable resource in the respective fields. The International Nuclear Information System (INIS) developed by International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has become open access on Internet for the benefit of users around the world. Free, open and unrestricted access to this domain specific resource will increase its reach and serve the purpose of rendering efficient information service to the human kind. The literature covered in the database is not only acting as a reference source for the development of Nuclear Science and Technology, but also empower the humanity with the peaceful uses of Nuclear Technology in food preservation in agriculture and medical diagnosis and treatment. INIS DATABASE It is a leading reference database for scientific literature published worldwide on the peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology with international coverage. It has over three million bibliographic citations and abstracts of journal articles, scientific and technical reports, conference papers, books, patents, theses, laws, regulations and standards, and web documents, covering publications in 63 languages; all records include keywords and most have an abstract in English. It also includes a unique online collection of over 200,000 full-text documents: scientific and technical reports, conference proceedings, patents, theses, and preprints. This “grey” non-conventional literature 53
Proceedings of READIT-2009, Kalpakkam - 603 102, 29-30 Dec 2009 (NCL) is not easily available from other sources. It adds around 100 000 records annually. During this year (April, 2009) INIS has become Open access to Internet users. INIS has been successfully fulfilling its mission to: create a reservoir of nuclear information for current and future generations provide quality nuclear information services to member states, and assist with the development of a culture of information and knowledge sharing INIS processes most of the world’s scientific and technical literature on a wide range of subjects from nuclear engineering, safeguards and non-proliferation to applications in agriculture and health The success of the growth and development of INIS is because of the policies and action plans of the INIS section under the Agency’s guidelines. The mantras of Cooperation and Decentralization with determined efforts of ensuring quality by INIS has empowered the researchers and policy makers in making use of the published literature from a single entry point or gateway. INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION INIS is operated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in collaboration with, at present, 121 Member States and 23 International Organizations. Active partnerships with other organizations in Member States are also developed (Nuclear Information and Knowledge No.7, June 2009). INIS' strength is based on international co-operation. Representation in the system is at governmental level. National INIS Centres are responsible for all related activities in a country. Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai is the National INIS Centre for India. DECENTRALIZATION Decentralisation is an important element of INIS' success. Collecting relevant literature and disseminating INIS output products to end-users is decentralized to National INIS Centres in Member States. This trusted international mechanism allows INIS to achieve widest coverage of national nuclear-related literature overcome cultural and language barriers, and give every INIS Member the right to access nuclear information of all other INIS Members. 54
