  1. Report on digital preservation services 13th Joint INIS/ETDE Technical Committee Meeting 20-22 October 2011, Vienna, Austria Germain St-Pierre Digital Preservation Technician

  2. Digital Preservation Projects at INIS • INIS Microfiche Collection • Other Digitization Projects • What comes next? 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  3. Microfiche Digitization Project Objectives • Digitize the INIS microfiche collection • Improve on-line access to full-texts • Ensure long-term preservation of the digital collection 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  4. Key Issues • Prevent duplication of digitization efforts • Ensure efficient monitoring and coordination of the project • Ensure good communication with the contractors • Ensure efficient matching of full-texts with INIS records 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  5. Microfiche Scanning • Status at the last (12th) INIS/ETDE JTC meeting: • 8,7 million digitized pages • Status on 20 October 2011: • 12,5 million digitized pages • Increase of 3,8 million pages 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  6. Our Goal • Provide the full-text for each NCL “available from INIS” • > 500 000 INIS NCL records • Volume 1 to 27 (1970 to 1996) • In > 304 000 cases: • 1 INIS record = 1 report on MF • Full-text available right after MF digitization • In ~ 186 000 cases, post-processing is necessary (document splitting) 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  7. Microfiche Digitization Statistics 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  8. Cumulative Full-Texts from Microfiche 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  9. Digitized Pages from Microfiche 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  10. Our Tools • Scanning and Image Enhancement • PixEdit 7 • Kodak Capture Pro • OCR • ABBYY FineReader 10 • NCL Collection Management System • Developed by SDSG

  11. 2. Other Digitization Projects • Completed projects: • IAEA Bulletin • IAEA General Conference • On-going projects: • INDC • Out of Print IAEA Publications • Technical Reports Series (TRS) • Proceedings Series • To support Member States digitization initiatives 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  12. 3. What comes next? (1) • Digitization of the remaining NCL on MF (mostly from U.S.A.) • Progressive Release of “Restricted” full-texts for free access on the Web • Testing and Implementation of new tools • ABBYY FineReader 11: now supports OCR of Arabic • OCR of Scientific Notation: e.g. InftReader 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting

  13. 3. What comes next? (2) • Add value to the existing Digital Collection by reprocessing (OCR) scanned images • Conversion to PDF/A-2u (with Unicode text) to ensure long-term preservation of our full-texts and multilingual full-text search 13th INIS/ETDE Joint Technical Committee Meeting
