COBISS - Slovene Virtual Library and COBISS.net
IZUM is engaged mainly in the development and operation of the COBISS - Slovene Virtual Library (co-operative online bibliographic system and services) system and services, which represent the root of the library information system in Slovenia. The system and services were developed by the IZUM in 1991 and today present the data contributed by over 400 Slovenian libraries (100,000 links to e-resources, 2 million books, 1.3 million articles, 90,000 journals, 75,000 CDs/DVDs, etc.).
In 2003, an Agreement was signed on the establishment of the COBISS.Net network and the free exchange of bibliographic records, that are created within the autonomous library information systems of the participating countries. Today it is a joint project of the institutions in Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia, Bulgaria, Albania and Kosovo. Bulgaria, Albania and Kosovo are preparing for the implementation of the COBISS system.
SICRIS and INFORS
IZUM develops the SICRIS (Slovene Current Research Information System) information system on research in Slovenia, which includes information about the identification and content of research projects, research institutions, teams and researchers. SICRIS is integrated into the information system of research projects in the European Union, named ERGO (European Research Gateways Online).
IZUM also provides conditions for the development and operation of INFORS (INFOrmation Resources in Slovenia), which offers information on publicly accessible databases and information systems and their providers (local and foreign) in Slovenia. The INFORS system has been developed and maintained by Justinfo Ltd.
On the basis of consortium agreements signed with foreign information services, IZUM provides users in Slovenia free access to some services and databases with full-text articles and summaries of disserations, eg Web of Science (citation indexes), OCLC FirstSearch - WorldCat (OCLC online world catalogue) and Electronic Collections Online (full-text articles), SwetScan (tables of contents of foreign scholarly journals), and Bell & Howell (UMI).
