  1. INIS - 43 Years of International Cooperation in the Field of Nuclear Information Nuclear Information Technology (China) Forum (NITF) Shanghai, China, 8-9 August 2013 Taghrid ATIEH Head, INIS Unit NIS Section Nuclear Energy Department, IAEA T.Atieh@iaea.org http://www.iaea.org/inis

  2. What is INIS  Products What INIS can do for You  International Cooperation NITF 2013, China

  3. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) • The world's center of cooperation in the nuclear field • Was set up as the world´s "Atoms for Peace" organization in 1957 within the United Nations family • Works with its Member States and multiple partners worldwide to promote safe, secure, and peaceful nuclear technologies • As of February 2013; 159 Member States • A team of 2300 multi-disciplinary professional and support staff from more than 100 countries Vienna, Austria NITF 2013, China

  4. IAEA’s Statute: Article III.A.3 … to foster the exchange of scientific & technical information on the peaceful uses of atomic energy NITF 2013, China

  5. I N I S Established in 1970 The first international computerized system The leading information system on peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology INIS Secretariat at IAEA Vienna – Austria NITF 2013, China

  6. INIS Mission • To collect, process and preserve, and disseminate: • Bibliographic data of the world’s nuclear literature • Full texts of non-conventional or 'grey' literature NITF 2013, China

  7. International Cooperation INIS Membership 128 Member States and 24 International Organizations Every INIS Member is represented by national INIS Liaison Officer NITF 2013, China

  8. Overview of INIS Operation National INIS Centres INIS Secretariat National INIS Centres Input preparation Input preparation - Utilization - Collection Products Reliable Sources Publishers - Users - Producers of literature NITF 2013, China

  9. Subject Scope Nuclear engineering and technology including fission reactors, nuclear power plants, fusion technology, nuclear fuel cycle and radioactive waste management. Nuclear safety and radiation protection dealing with the safe operation and maintenance of nuclear power plants, protection of the public from accidental and chronic exposure, safe transport and storage of radioactive wastes as well as monitoring and protection of the environment. Application of nuclear and isotope techniques in medicine, food and agriculture, water resource management, industrial applications and similar development activities. NITF 2013, China

  10. Subject Scope Sciences relevant to nuclear research and other applications such as effects of radiation and radioisotopes in biology, chemistry andmaterial sciences, physics and earth sciences. Physics: Chemistry: Nuclear physics Plasma physics Condensed matter (nuclear aspects) Elementary Particles Atomic and Molecular Physics Radiochemistry Radiation Chemistry Analytical Chemistry Nuclear Chemistry NITF 2013, China

  11. Subject Scope Legal aspects Safeguards and non-Proliferation Environmental and Economic aspects of nuclear & non-nuclear energy sources NITF 2013, China

  12. Subject Scope INIS collects literature on all aspects of the peaceful applications of nuclear science and technology thereby Reflects the activities and interests of all IAEA Members States NITF 2013, China

  13. Main Products: INIS Collection/ Database,from 1970 1. Over 3.5 million indexed records  English abstract  Over 120 000 records/year  Weekly updates  Full texts searchable  Open on the Web  Over 50 000 hits/month  NITF 2013, China

  20. Main Products: INIS is a pioneer in preservation of nuclear literature 4. INIS Non-Conventional ‘Grey’ literature (NCL): Definition: Scientific and technical reports, conference papers, theses and patent documents, Laws and legislations,etcwhich are not readily available through commercial channels • ~ 500,000 full texts searchable: Western European, Cyrillic and Slavic scripts, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Thai languages NITF 2013, China

  21. Web Abundance, Volatile, Not controlled/Unreliable INIS Reliable Source, Selected, Evaluated, Value added High Quality, Structured Database NITF 2013, China

  22. International Cooperation The last 10 years: • INIS Thesaurus continues to grow • Digitization of full texts of microfiches • INIS Collection on the web • Access to Nuclear Science Abstracts (NSA) records of international nuclear science and technology literature prior to INIS • Multilingual support in INIS products • Computer-AssistedIndexing (CAI) • FIBRE+ (integrated software package for input preparation and checking) NITF 2013, China

  23. Future: • Further simplification of INIS input records • Continue to use new information technology and methodologies • Provide access to other nuclear information resources NITF 2013, China

  24. What INIS Can do for You: • Single point of access to current and historical information • Reliable information sources to support national nuclear programme • Preserve the country’s literature for future generations • Worldwide visibility of your achievements /identify collaborators NITF 2013, China

  25. Current Status of NPPs in China • 18 NPP units in operation • 28 units under construction Different nuclear information resources and databases NITF 2013, China

  26. Sharing information resources on the peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology via reliable information system is the way for sustainable international cooperation INIS - 43 Years of International Cooperation in the Field of Nuclear Information … is at hand NITF 2013, China
