Sustainable development of Siberian and Far Eastern nature and society: analysis of document flow based on electronic collection of SPSTL SB RAS

Abstract

“Living substance is biosphere's driving force whom main activity type is biogeochemical work in biosphere”. Biosphere development problems came up in twentieth century. Conception of sustainable development as translational headway which provides with society rational needs and conservation of environment state for future generations was accepted in 1922 at UN international conference, Rio de Janeiro. In Russia in 1992 were issued presidential decree № 236 and government decree № 217-r. In SPSTL SB RAS creation of bibliographical database of society and nature sustainable development started in 1997 due to theme actuality and large amount of scientific researches in Russia and in the world entirely. Since 2011 it is introduced in “Scientific Sibirica” database as a topic section. Deposit copies and public access scientific publications are the main database information sources. To cover all theme aspects literature selection and systematization methods and documents analytical processing structure were set up. State Classifier of Scientific and Technical information, not normative key words and thematic classifier are used as language support. Thematic classifier reflects main civilization problems represented in SB RAS research establishments priority areas of activity: general issues (historical, philosophical, law, informational), social and ecological issues, economical issues of sustainable development. Analysis of database information since 1998 to 2017 showed up next points: • reflection of social processes in data store by focus on particular sustainable development directions. • topic actuality. Annual large stock of publications (8700 documents averagely) which are highly dissipated (1236 periodicals (39%) and 5899 scientific events materials (35%) are represented by only one publication). • prevalence of scientific publications for: 13623 symposiums, seminars, conferences (81%); 605 productive Russian journals included in scientometrical systems; 448 (43%) productive Russian journals included in State Commission for Academic Degrees and Titles list. • various access levels of articles full texts: on electronic scientific library (E-library.ru) 531 (68%) productive Russian journals are at free access, the others may be viewed only directly from library or by subscription; on E-library and in Open Access systems materials of symposiums, conferences and seminars are partly accessible and temporarily published on the Internet. In the interest of specialists' and scientists' time economy they receive information by selective dissemination of information system since 1997. Since 1998 information is available by WEB-oriented information retrieval system of SPSTL SB RAS which includes optimized set of retrieval parameters; retrieval by all resources or by some certain resources; various retrieval modes; retrieval result improvement by retrieval vocabulary or hyperlinks in publications description; retrieval result saving in common formats; retrieval request saving and edition; subscription on new arrivals by e-mail; access to information by retrieval result (publications full texts browsing, print media order). From 2019 new WEB-oriented IRS will be supplemented by: full-text retrieval, retrieval by natural language phrase; faceted navigation; various access rights and full texts references registration and other options. Bibliographical resources in-formational opportunities will extend as 22655 documents (17%) from “Sustainable development of society and nature” section of “Scientific Siberica” database already have links on their full text (publications having DOI, publications on CD-ROM; publications in the public domain; published scientific events materials which arrive at libraries in printed format). For Internet-oriented customers on the web-site there are: topic sector description allowing switch to WEB IRS; virtual literature collections are represented (in xml-format) allowing full texts browsing and switch to WEB IRS. There is another advanced research direction -semantic WEB projects based on authority files of authors, personalities, organizations, subject and geographical headings. Update of “Scientific Siberica” bibliographical database and specially “Sustainable development of society and nature” section is directed at next points: documents analytic processing extension; functional files of authors, personalities, organizations, subject and geographical headings authority setting up; links on opened fulltext Internet resources addition; user interface development in WEB IRS and on the SPSTL SB RAS web-site.
