  • INIS (International Nuclear Information System) is the world's largest database in the field of peaceful uses of nuclear science and is operated by the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) in collaboration with the INIS Member States. The Austrian INIS center is located at the Central Library of Physics and is responsible for the selection and input of relevant, in Austria published literature. With over 3.3 million bibliographic records the INIS Collection provides access to a unique collection of gray literature in the field of nuclear science. This includes over 280,000 full-text documents, such as, scientific and technical reports, conference protocols and patents, which would be difficult to obtain elsewhere. This paper deals specifically with the INIS Collection Search, which allows an extremely precise search result using the INIS multilingual Thesaurus. The Thesaurus contains 30,000 terms and is available in all the IAEA's official languages (Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, Japanese, Spanish and German). Access to the INIS Collection, the INIS bibliographic database and to the full-text document is free of charge and via the INIS website http://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. INIS supports information retrieval through two basic search modes: Standard Search and Advanced Search. User registration for INIS Collection is provided through NUCLEUS, the common access point to the IAEA's scientific, technical and regulatory information resources. Registered INIS-users have access to a comprehensive range of information, to an “user profile” and to a “workspace”, where, among other things search results can be saved and search queries (queries) can be managed. After a brief general introduction about INIS and ICS selected case studies on the application of ICS are shown. Last but not least, new developments related to the INIS Collection Search are discussed.
