WINITI ( Russian ВИНИТИ , Всероссийский институт научной и технической информации, W serossiiski I nstitut N autschnoi i T echnitscheskoi I nformazii), which stands for All-Russian Institute for Scientific and Technical Information , which in is Moscow Information Center established the Academy of Sciences of the Russian Federation . The central and leading institution in Russia and the rest of the CIS, and its website, serves primarily the Russian-speaking public who are looking for information from scientific and technical fields such as mathematics, computer science, electrical engineering, physics, chemistry and economics. For those non-Russian-speaking information seekers, English-language information is available on the website.
history
In 1952 the Institute for Scientific Information was founded by the Soviet Academy of Sciences and in 1955 it was reorganized as WINITI, All Union Institute ("Vsesojusny Institute") for scientific and technical information . As a documentation center for science and research in the former USSR, WINITI was an effective element of the information supply involved in the Sputnik shock in the USA in 1957. VEB Zentrale Informationsverarbeitung Chemie Berlin (ZIC) has been collecting data for the SPRESI database for chemicals since the 1970s together with WINITI Structures, reactions, facts and bibliographical references.
In 1998, WINITI was appointed by the Russian parliament, the Duma , to organize the state system of scientific and technical information (GSNTI, Russian: Gossudarstwennaja sistema nautschno-technitscheskoi informazii ).
Availability
Today the database is offered online by InfoChem GmbH (Springer Science and Business Media) as a web application SPRESI web . WINITI has been working with FIZ Chemie since 2001, and WINITI's data flow into the DETHERM database , the world's largest factual database of thermophysical and thermodynamic data.
The Technical Information Library (TIB) Hanover obtained so-called deposited articles from VINITI from 1970 to 1985 and again since 1992 , which holds the largest pool of such articles. These deposited essays (cited as "Dep. Ruk. ..." or "Deposited Doc ...") are a typical USSR type of publication of extensive works that are referred to in the so-called "Referatiwny schurnal", but only in short form or not at all in magazines have appeared. The full text is deposited with the respective information institute and is only available on request. The journal presentations are available online or on CD-ROM. The TIB houses around 90,000 of these essays.
editor
The institute publishes paper sheets, databases and various magazines. WINITI literature from 70 countries in 40 languages serves as sources for these works. WINITI has been operating a database with over 21 million (2005) documents since 1981. The database comprises 28 subject areas (240 subtopics) and is expanded monthly. It is one of the largest scientific and technical databases in Russia. The contents of the database, 30 percent of which come from Russian sources, are books, periodicals, own publications, scientific publications and gray literature . Each document contains a presentation in Russian. The abstracts of the documents are free of charge.
