36th Consultative INIS Liaison Officers Meeting

Vienna, Austria4-5 October 2012

ETDE is a collaboration among countries, like INIS. It is under the International Energy Agency framework. Just as the main product for INIS is its INISDB, ETDE has the ETDE World Energy Base, or ETDEWEB. Members contribute to the database, and share costs.

ETDE scope is much broader than INIS; ETDE and INIS cooperate to benefit members who participate in both.

Thus, ETDE and INIS cooperate on many of the authorities and try to have similar input preparation guidance; JTC meetings discuss common issues and we benefit from each others’ experiences.

ETDE is governed by an Executive Committee and managed by an Operating Agent, located in Oak Ridge, TN USA

Briefly, about ETDE

1974-1986 Bilateral agreements between countries to exchange information

1987 Multilateral agreement formed under IEA IA framework

1999 ETDEWEB debuted with opening ceremony at the IEA in Paris with ~ 600,000 records (Today, over 4.7 million)

2004 Opened free access to developing countries; also available onsite at IEA and at the IAEA

2006-present Enhancements: Federated Search, alerts, DOI links and OpenURL, domain recognition, search narrowing by subject, citation translation, widget, popular topics, and Google presence

Currently streamlining processing flow at the Operating Agent

Will be looking at open access resources to see if harvesting of some sites may reduce member input preparation costs

Looking forward to further cooperation with INIS

Encourage additional countries to join ETDE and be part of its future

Next ExCo meeting is May or June 2013 in Norway
