Introduction
1. Library automation system IRBIS
Conclusion
Full compatibility with international formats UNIMARC, MARC21. and the Russian communication format RUSMARC
The system supports an arbitrary number of databases that make up the Electronic Catalog or are problem-oriented bibliographic databases. The technology of automatic formation of dictionaries has been introduced, on the basis of which a quick search for any elements of description and their combinations is realized; means for maintaining and using Authoritative files, the Alphabetical-Subject Index to the UDC / LBC and the Thesaurus;
The program implements support for traditional "paper" technologies: from printing order sheets and a summary book to printing all types of catalog cards; support for full text, graphic data and other external objects (including Internet resources).
The program allows the use of technologies focused on the use of barcodes on copies of publications and library cards.
The system includes tools for translating user interfaces into other languages.
A wide range of service tools provides convenience and clarity of user interfaces that simplify the input process, eliminating errors and duplication of information.
The system can be easily adapted to the working conditions of a particular library.
Openness allows the user to independently make changes in a wide range: from changing input and output forms to developing original applications.
The system implements all typical library technologies, including acquisition, systematization, cataloging, reader search, book lending and administration technologies, based on the interconnected functioning of five types of automated workstations (AWS):
AWP "Complector"
AWS "Cataloguer"
AWP "Reader"
AWS "Book Distribution"
AWP "Administrator"
AWS "BOOKING SUPPLY"
Workstation "Complector" allows you to:
Preliminary description and execution of order documents for books and other publications with the possibility of using machine-readable plans of publishing houses; control of order fulfillment;
Registration of literature receipt, input of primary data for the summary ledger (KSU);
Transfer of descriptions for cataloging and information on completing to the electronic catalog;
Subscription of periodicals (subscription cards and order sheets) with the possibility of using machine-readable subscription catalogs; prolongation of subscription;
Transfer of descriptions of periodicals to the electronic catalog with the subsequent registration of regular receipts;
Writing off literature - including the processes of disposing of literature from the fund and moving it from one department to another;
Typical output forms - inventory lists, KSU sheets, summary data on the receipt of literature in the fund, acts of writing off literature, etc.
The automated workstation "Cataloguer" processes any kind of publications, including audio and video materials, electronic resources, cartographic materials, sheet music, etc., any completeness of description, including the table of contents of journals and the content of collections.
Descriptions of periodicals can be obtained at the consolidated level and at the level of individual issues and "file sets", taking into account information about the articles included in them.
In the "Cataloguer" the technology of indexing editions (systematization, subjectization), includes the automatic formation of the author's mark and the navigation apparatus for the GRNTI heading, the UDC / LBC alphabetical-subject index, the authoritative file of subject headings and thesaurus.
The data copying technology excludes re-entry when creating similar and related bibliographic descriptions, in particular, when creating analytical descriptions.
The program has a system of formal and logical control of data, both at the level of individual bibliographic elements and at the level of description as a whole, and an original technology for automatic verification for duplication, which excludes re-entry into the electronic catalog.
With the help of the "Cataloguer", the problem of book supply and inventory-free accounting of multi-copy literature for university libraries can be solved.
The output forms used are indexes, inventory lists, lists of journal issues that have not been received, etc.
Workstation "Administrator" is a workstation of a specialist performing system operations on databases as a whole, aimed at maintaining their relevance, integrity and safety.
The automated workstation AWS "Book Distribution" implements the technology of forming and maintaining a queue of electronic orders for the issuance of literature and recording their execution, as well as the technology of recording the return of literature. With the help of the program, you can get operational information about free copies of ordered literature, about the literature issued and the readers who have it on hand.
Accounting for information on the issuance / return of literature is carried out in individual cards (documents) of readers. The program allows you to get statistics on debts and literature demand. A special technology of book distribution based on bar-coding of copies and library tickets has also been implemented.
The "Reader" AWS is characterized by a friendly interface designed for a user who does not have any special knowledge. The program takes into account various levels of user training. The undoubted advantage of the system is a wide range of search tools that provide fast (by direct access through dictionaries) search in the databases of the electronic catalog for any elements of description and their combinations. It is possible to work with several databases that make up the electronic catalog. The user has the opportunity to use the paperless technology of forming an order for the issuance of literature.
AWS "KNIGOOSEPHENNOST" is intended for maintaining a database of academic disciplines related to databases of readers (students) and catalogs. The user-friendly interface displays all the options for connections between academic disciplines, students and literature.
The calculation of book supply ratios is carried out taking into account the following provisions:
Determination of the number of students and the number of copies online,
Taking into account the possibility of using one textbook by students for several disciplines,
Accounting for the availability of copies intended for certain categories of students ("allocated funds"),
Taking into account the possibility of multiple use of the textbook by sequentially different groups of students during one semester;
The program provides for the formation of tables of book availability coefficients for any subset of literature for a given semester and Formation of various output forms, including "Provision of students with literature from the university fund" in accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Education.
Web-IRBIS software is designed to provide Internet users with access to electronic catalogs and other bibliographic IRBIS databases. Web-IRBIS is used as one of the main components of library Internet servers and Internet complexes.
All functions are fully managed by the administrator, including setting up search forms, adding and removing search fields, setting up their attributes, enabling rubricators and static dictionaries. Elements of support for electronic document delivery services and direct access to full texts (if any) based on search results have been introduced. Authorized access technology is not built on the level of standard methods of web servers, but on the basis of original solutions using dynamically generated pages and form file libraries. This was first implemented with the aim of expanding the ability to adapt to specific conditions and increase resistance to unauthorized access. Web-IRBIS has built-in support for including links to full-text documents in the electronic catalog. At the same time, a free technology of forming links in the form of URLs has been implemented, which makes it possible to use this not only for forming your own collection of full texts, but also for cataloging and including Internet resources in the database, which is extremely important in modern conditions. Thus, Web-IRBIS can be used as a basic technology for creating virtual and electronic libraries. The process of creating links is quite simple and fully integrated with the IRBIS technology. Web-IRBIS provides a high speed of execution of queries of varying degrees of complexity. Web-IRBIS provides support for extended formats, setting delivery parameters; allows the possibility of using advanced means of forming queries, the use of several terms in one field; has advanced service functions.
Web-IRBIS is based on the following set of main components:
1. The module for providing communication between the web server and the database, created on the basis of CGI technology for web servers Apache, WebSite. In addition, it enables the software to work with any other server that supports this technology, which is the standard for running applications on the Internet. IIS uses internal API support technology. Modules using CGI are executed in the form of executable programs, API - in the form of dynamic libraries. These modules are the only ones specific to various web servers - all the rest do not depend on the type of specified servers and methods of interaction.
2. Modules of search and formatting of results are common for Web-IRBIS and IRBIS and are made in the form of dynamic libraries. They are controlled by the communication module and provide search and display of preformatted results in accordance with the transmitted parameters. The final formatting and conversion to HTML is done by the communication module.
3. Library of form files - the basis of secure authorized access technology. The developed algorithm will make it possible not to permanently store search pages and pages for displaying results - they are created when a request to perform an operation is received and are deleted after the process is completed. Therefore, it is impossible to carry out unauthorized access to all modes from the Internet.
4. Technological databases. Contains information about the registration of remote users and received orders.
5. Tree of static pages. Used for initial study and as examples to design your server.
The main system characteristics of Web-IRBIS are as follows:
Full compatibility with all components of the IRBIS family;
Unified technology for servicing local and remote users;
Unified technology for servicing inquiries received online and by e-mail;
Full compatibility of the descriptions of the input worksheets to ensure the cataloging process with the network version of the system;
The ability to use a single bibliographic array both for technological operations and for servicing local and remote users;
Availability of support functions for electronic libraries, electronic delivery of documents and IBA;
Availability of support functions for distributed corporate systems and multi-branch networks;
Simple and convenient billing and user authorization system;
Ability to work with any number of bibliographic databases, including simultaneously;
The ability to form a query in fixed and free forms using most of the information retrieval operations;
Ability to use any user-defined output formats, including RUSMARC, UNIMARC, MARC21.
The user of the Web-IRBIS system can perform a number of basic operations:
1) Search in an arbitrary database with an IRBIS structure, by an unlimited number of fields, by any description elements and their combinations, with the ability to define prefixes and qualifiers for search terms, normalize words and apply the truncation apparatus
2) Use of static dictionaries and rubrics included in search forms or connected from the outside in the search, with the ability to combine dictionary elements with any other search prescriptions;
3) The use of dynamic dictionaries of databases, with the ability to obtain a list of dictionary terms with subsequent search by selected terms; navigation through dictionaries, including the task of starting scanning by the first characters, and in terms of "next", "previous";
4) Display of records from an arbitrary database in all types of standard formats, including information, in the form of a catalog card, in tags and decrypted RUSMARC, UNIMARC, MARC21. It is possible to use any formats defined by the user in the IRBIS notation;
5) Quantization of output records in a user-defined format, followed by navigation in terms of "next", "previous";
6) Selecting records from among those found, with their subsequent processing, including unloading selected records in standard RUSMARC, UNIMARC, MARC21 formats;
7) Cataloging in three modes:
cataloging of new or read documents by number;
cataloging the found portion of documents;
cataloging of imported documents;
Web-IRBIS is a reliable and convenient platform for the implementation of library Internet applications and their subsequent integration into a single library Internet complex. Web-IRBIS - is constantly being improved and modified, new functions and capabilities are being added, integration with other subsystems of the IRBIS family is deepening. The outsourcing service IRBIShost was built on its basis. User support is provided both in the traditional way and through the Internet conferencing system.
At present, the Russian National Public Library for Science and Technology has created the IRBIS64 subsystem to create full-text databases. The documents of these databases can be texts in TXT, DOC, RTF, PDF, HTM, HTML formats. This subsystem implements the semantic analysis of texts. Approaches to solving the problem of semantic processing of texts can be formulated in the following stages:
1. Creation of a full-text database from an array of texts.
2. Natural-thematic classification of texts based on the selection of significant terms in the subject area. Thematic classification allows you to compare texts with each other for their closeness in meaning. A subject classifier is a set of subject vocabularies that include terms that are significant in a given subject area.
The IRBIS64 full-text database subsystem includes:
1. Extended AWP “Administrator”, which, in addition to standard functions, includes additional modes for working with full-text databases.
2. AWP of the end user (reader) for searching and viewing in full-text databases. This AWS implements special search algorithms:
Search by query in natural language.
Search for similar texts to text from a full-text database in a user-defined thematic context.
Search for similar texts to external (in relation to the full-text database) text in a user-defined thematic context.
In addition to the end user (reader), the system is oriented towards an expert user, whose task includes preliminary work on the creation of a full-text database and natural-thematic classification of texts. In addition, the system will allow experts and classifiers to work with full-text collections of the library in the mode of intelligent semantic analysis of texts. (All these functions are implemented in the extended AWS “Administrator”).
2. Implementation and use of IRBIS
The selection management process and software selection for library automation tasks, as well as implementation, can be represented by the following components:
1. Determination of the types of work to be automated.
2. Correspondence of software capabilities to automation tasks.
3. Determination of the required computing resources for automation.
4. Presentation of the main stages of software implementation and drawing up a preliminary plan.
5. Analysis of the data obtained and making a final decision.
6. Settings. Software technology issues.
7. Administration of the program.
To carry out automation you need:
Qualified personnel;
Support for the main goals of automation by the team, founder, sponsors;
Availability of consultants who participated in similar projects;
Proven (proven) software.
The process of implementing any automation system in libraries can be viewed from different angles. First, it is an administrative component; it is, perhaps, the most important at the stage of choosing software and creating technological interaction between system users. Secondly, it is a professional component, the one that allows a person whose work is automated to work comfortably in this program. And the third component is the user of library resources, the person who receives bibliographic information at the output of the entire automated chain.
The introduction of any software product (especially a licensed and expensive one) should be started with an acquaintance with its demo version.
By introducing the IRBIS program, libraries are faced with the need for a deep study of the library technological processes, their optimization. This sometimes requires the creation of a new structural unit, for example, a sector for technological support of library processes, which is responsible for observing the technology of work in the IRBIS environment, analyzes the processes, and develops optimal and coordinated decisions when introducing (and further operating) program modules.
Automation of any area of \u200b\u200bwork requires additional costs during the "transition" of technologies. At the same time, it is necessary to support materially both traditional technologies and increasingly voracious new ones. Depending on the needs and capabilities of libraries, the process of mastering new technologies can be very slow or very fast.
For the successful functioning of the “IRBIS” system, it may be necessary to significantly modernize the computer equipment park, to organize new automated workstations. To implement bar-coding technology, it is necessary to purchase a thermal transfer printer, hand-held laser scanners.
For the implementation of IRBIS, it is necessary to develop a plan for the implementation of the system, which includes technical, technological, organizational and methodological aspects, as well as retraining of personnel. As a rule, it is necessary to solve the following tasks:
Upgrade your PC and peripheral fleet:
Train personnel to work in the IRBIS environment;
Convert existing EC and DB libraries;
Introduce the modules "Kitator", "Cataloguer", "Reader", "Book Distribution", using bar coding technology to serve readers and manage the fund;
Modernize the WEB-site of the library and publish the database using the IRBIS technology.
First of all, it is necessary to analyze the existing database maintenance technology and determine the sequence of work, as well as the resources necessary for their implementation.
Obviously, one of the key issues in the development of IRBIS is personnel training, overcoming psychological barriers that inevitably arise both for those who first start using computer technologies (employees of subscription departments), and for the personnel of departments who have been successfully working for several years using other programs, for example, "Library" (in the latter case it is caused by fundamental differences existing in the programs IRBIS and "Library"). The professional development plan must be drawn up taking into account the level of knowledge of computer technologies of specific employees (based on preliminary testing and questionnaires). The plan may provide for the solution of various tasks: from acquiring initial skills in working with a PC, mastering Windows OS, to a detailed study of individual IRBIS modules.
According to the plan, the development of IRBIS should be carried out in several directions at once, which requires wide involvement of the personnel of most departments, well-thought-out and interconnected decisions.
At the stage of creating a technical assignment for conversion from previously used programs, difficulties may arise associated with the inconsistency of the EC records of the library with the requirements of the USMARC format, incorrect filling of the fields by the library cataloguers. Therefore, it is required to analyze almost every EC field. Those fields that could not be corrected by software had to be edited manually. The creation of a technical task also requires a deep study of the USMARC, UNIMARC, RUSMARC formats.
Thus, as a result of the work carried out, it is possible not only to prepare the database for conversion, but also to significantly improve the quality of the library's EC and DB, to improve the qualifications of employees in the field of machine-readable formats.
The following tasks are solved using bar coding technology:
1. Acceleration of the processes of issuing and receiving literature, reducing the time the reader waits for a book up to 10 minutes;
2. Simplification of issuing and returning literature for the reader (rejection of book forms and reader requirements);
3. Elimination of mechanical errors when accepting / lending books;
4. Acceleration of processing of new receipts by reducing the number of transactions;
5. Cost savings: labeling of pockets and printing of book forms, purchase of reader forms becomes unnecessary.
Barcoding in the library is used not only to automate book lending, but also inventory. However, human participation in the inventory process is quite large. And therefore the human factor plays an important role, which cannot be ignored.
It should be noted that when carrying out an inventory, it is necessary, in advance or in parallel, to verify the compliance of barcodes on labels with identifiable material values. This requirement is due to the fact that one of the main problems is the so-called re-grading, when, say, on a chair, a barcode corresponding to the table is glued.
Another problem is the need to create a "snapshot" of the position of material assets at the time of the inventory. If the movement of material values \u200b\u200bdoes not stop during the inventory process, then some bar codes may not be read, and then the system will issue a message about the shortage, although the corresponding values \u200b\u200bare available.
The issues discussed above must be monitored without fail during the inventory, which will reduce the errors of the inspectors to zero. Otherwise, the reliability of the inventory results may be in doubt.
The introduction of automated technology is preceded by a lot of preparatory work, an action plan for the introduction of a new technology should be drawn up, priority areas of activity should be determined:
1. Purchase and installation of equipment, training of library staff;
2. Bulk printing of barcodes on books using hot-start technology;
3. Assignment of a barcode to the active part of the fund (before issuance and after return);
4. Bulk printing of stickers for library cards. Assignment of SK to library cards as readers arrive at the scientific literature subscription.
At the next stage, it is necessary to develop a technical assignment (TOR) for the creation of the "Reader" database (determination of the list and content of fields, the composition of dictionaries). When creating a TK, it is necessary to take into account the existing technology of working with the reader in the library: registration, re-registration, work with indebted readers, types of accounting documents, etc.
It should be noted that no automation system will work if:
The collective is hostile (there is no motivation for implementation or, what is worse, there is a motivation for non-implementation);
There is no plan for the implementation of the automation system;
No one sees at least medium-term forecasts of the operation of such a system and does not guess what all this is for;
The stages of the automation program and the persons responsible for mastering the assigned tasks have not been determined;
There are no qualified performers at any stage of the work.
At this time, there is no automation software that meets all the needs of librarians, and, accordingly, is able to solve all of the above tasks. Therefore, the question of the directions of automation of each library, the use of one system of programs or work with several different software products to increase efficiency is especially acute.
Conclusion
The developer and distributor of the IRBIS system is the International Association of Users and Developers of Electronic Libraries and New Information Technologies. Founders of the Association: States. Public Scientific and Technical Library (RNSTL) of Russia, etc.
In Russia and the CIS countries, the IRBIS system is one of the recognized leaders among software products of this kind. Currently IRBIS is used in hundreds of libraries of different scales and profiles. A distinctive feature of IRBIS is that it is aimed at users who are not high-level specialists in computing. The use of IRBIS, of course, greatly expands the possibilities in servicing the library's readers. Irbis has ample opportunities to adapt to the working conditions of a particular library, i.e. when transferring and installing the system, it can be configured in accordance with the specific requirements of the user.
The advantageous sides of IRBIS are that:
all major library processes are automated as independently functioning subsystems;
IRBIS meets international requirements and international library formats;
russian interface greatly facilitates the development of IRBIS;
relative cheapness;
All typical library technologies are implemented in this system. These are technologies of acquisition, systematization, cataloging, reader search, and book distribution.
There are five types of automated workstations in the system: "Picker" "Cataloguer", "Reader", "Book Distribution", "Administrator".
The system allows you to create and maintain any number of databases that make up an electronic catalog. Dictionaries are automatically generated, you can quickly search for any description elements and their combinations. Cataloging tools allow you to process and describe any kind of publications (books, magazines, video material, CD-ROM). The system supports traditional "paper technologies": from printing order sheets to printing all types of index cards. The reader can search the electronic catalog: by keywords, by author, by title, by year of publication, by UDC, by subject heading, etc.
The following order of implementation of Irbis in the library is recommended: Collection set - Catalogue - Book lending - Reader. AWP Reader should be introduced only if the entire catalog (or a significant, important, requested part) has already been filled into the database. Otherwise, if there is very little there, then there is no sense in the Reader. In addition, the Reader is really needed for e-book distribution, and for this you must first introduce this book distribution. Almost every AWP is logically tied to some other, however, the Set and Cataloger are not only logically connected, but also physically, so it is advisable to start implementation with them.

, press the button "numbers", and a window with the registered numbers opens, then making sure that the journal is not registered, press the button "cancel" and begin registration.
7. In the window, press the button "register", a window opens and in the field "936: Number, part" enter the number of the journal.
8. Then, in the field "910: Information about instances" press the button, the window "Element: 910: Information about instances" appears. We put the status “0”, in the field “No.” we put it in the field “Date” - hold down the alt button and press the letter D on the keyboard. In the "Storage location" field, indicate where the copy is stored. Press enter and the button "Save"! We check the bibliographic record and other elements of the description.
Creation of analytical
bibliographic record
1. Open AWS “Cataloguer”. Select the database (database) in which the records will be saved.
2. Then select RL (worksheet) ASP42 - Analytical description of the article (full), format - optimized.
3. The page "Duplicate" is intended for checking the newly entered document for duplication. Therefore, if you need to enter another record in place of the detected doublet, you need:
delete or change the data value in the field on which the cursor is located (this, of course, removes the duplicate message);
"Empty" the document;
enter new data. After checking for duplication, on the same page, fill in the following fields:
The field is intended for entering information about the author, if the article was written by one author. For articles written by two or three authors, in field 700 the first of these authors is given. Information about the second and third authors is reflected in field 701.
In the underground700 we press the button, after which a window opens.
5. In the window that opens, fill in the Surname, Initials, Initials Expansion, Additions to names, except for dates (titles, epithets, positions), etc.
6. Field 200: Title
This field is required. Enter the main title of the article. The main title is reproduced in its entirety as given in the publication. We fill in the subfield "Information related to the title" - this is information that explains the content of the article.
If from the title of the article it is not clear what the article is about, we formulate the content of the article ourselves and put it in square brackets.
For example: [About bibliographic search methodology]
First information about responsibility - the subfield is filled in automatically from the field 700 and 701.
Since we originally registered the publication, all the necessary information about the magazine or newspaper is transferred automatically.
In this field we enter only pages, on which the article is printed, we enter without the letter "c". A hyphen is put between the numbers in the page designation, there are no spaces.
The digital designation of the magazine is given in Arabic numerals.
Main BO page
There is a small button at the end of the field 
, when you click, a window appears where the required fields are filled. A unit opposite a field means that the field is repeated as needed.
Technology page
We fill in fields 907 - Cataloguer, date and 902 - Document holder. AT 907 field the dates of the stage-by-stage processing of the document and the full name of the contractor are indicated. These data are an important element of accounting for the work of cataloguers, both in terms of assessing the quantity and quality of work performed.
On the Technology page in Field 905 - Setting. QC circulation ... you can specify how many main and / or additional QCs (circulation) need to be generated when batch printing QCs. It is specified as two numbers separated by the “/” character (no spaces). For example, 6/2 (a batch of no more than 10 basic CCs and no more than 5 additional ones can be processed).

INTRODUCTION TO WEB-IRBIS 64
General information
The Web-IRBIS 64 software is designed to provide Internet users with access to electronic catalogs and other bibliographic databases prepared with the IRBIS64 system. The Web-IRBIS 64 system is used as one of the main components of library Internet servers and Internet complexes (BIK).
Main system characteristics of Web-IRBIS 64
· Unified technology for servicing local and remote users.
· Possibility of using a single bibliographic array, both for technological operations and for servicing local and remote users.
· Ability to work with any number of bibliographic databases.
· Wide possibilities of customization and creation of the most user-friendly environment for a particular library.
· Ability to use any user-defined output formats, including RUSMARC, UNIMARC, USMARC.
Basic operations of Web-IRBIS 64
· Search in an arbitrary database with the IRBIS64 structure by an unlimited number of fields, by any description elements and their combinations, using the logic "AND", "OR" and "FULLY PHRASE" , with the ability to define prefixes and qualifiers for search terms, grammatical normalization of Russian words and the use of the truncation apparatus.
Refine search in the results of the previous search by condition (sequential search)
Sort search results by conditions
· Storage of orders made with the ability to edit ("basket" mode of orders).
· View the status of the reader's form in real time.
· Use in the search of static dictionaries and rubrics included in search forms or connected from the outside, with the ability to combine dictionary elements with any other search prescriptions.
· Use of dynamic dictionaries of databases, with the ability to obtain a list of dictionary terms and with the subsequent search for the selected terms; navigation through dictionaries, including the task of starting scanning by the first characters, and in terms of "next", "previous".
· Display of records from an arbitrary database in all types of standard formats, including information, in the form of a catalog card, in tags and decrypted RUSMARC, UNIMARC, USMARC. It is possible to use any formats defined by the user in the IRBIS notation.
· Quantization of output records in a user-defined format, followed by navigation in terms of "next", "previous".
· Selecting records from the number of found ones, with their subsequent processing, including unloading the selected records in standard RUSMARC, UNIMARC, USMARC formats.
The software was developed in such a way that all functions and capabilities are fully controlled by the administrator of the library information complex, including setting up search forms, adding and removing search fields, setting up their attributes, including rubricators and static dictionaries.
When developing Web-IRBIS 64, special attention was paid to additional service functions aimed at improving user service and integrating within library and interlibrary technologies through the library information complex.
This is especially important for getting closer to modern technologies of remote service of readers and electronic libraries. It is known that typical library information systems have a significant drawback - a gap in the search technology and subsequent access to the found primary sources. Of course, the situation is quite inconvenient for the user when he can find a description of the publication he needs, regardless of the time and geographical conditions and cannot then use modern communication technologies to obtain the document he needs.
To address this issue, elements of support for electronic document delivery and direct access to full text (if any) from search results have been introduced. At the same time, of course, legal restrictions related to the need to comply with copyright law were taken into account, that is, the placement of full-text documents and the conditions for their use on the Internet passed the required agreement with the copyright holders.
It should be noted that the opportunity has been created to use different modes of access to databases. For this, in the process of research and development, 3 basic modes were introduced, the properties of which can be combined and redefined for each specific Internet complex.
It should also be emphasized that the technology of authorized access is not built on the level of standard methods of Web servers, but on the basis of original solutions using dynamically generated pages and libraries of form files. This was done with the aim of expanding the ability to adapt to specific conditions and increasing resistance to unauthorized interference.
The next important feature of Web-IRBIS 64 is built-in support for including links to full texts of documents in the electronic catalog and database. At the same time, a free technology of forming links in the form of URLs has been implemented, which allows using this solution not only to form your own collection of full texts, but also to catalog and include Internet resources in the database, which is extremely important in modern conditions. Thus, Web-IRBIS 64 can be used as a basic technology for creating virtual and electronic libraries.
The process of creating links is quite simple and is fully integrated with the technology of creating a catalog description of IRBIS: when formatting a record, a standard link is automatically generated and a direct link to the full text of the document appears in the description.
The advantages of Web-IRBIS 64 include a high speed of execution of queries of varying degrees of complexity.
The Web-IRBIS 64 system provides support for extended and nested formats, which was not available in previous implementations, setting the output parameters; allows the use of advanced means of forming queries, the use of several terms in one field; has advanced service functions.

The IBIS_EX section provides the display of the advanced search page and the display of dictionary terms. The display of search results is set ONLY in the IBIS section, which allows it to be unified. On the other hand, this makes it impossible to transfer the I21DBN parameter by format to the search form.
The Web-IRBIS 64 system is based on the following set of main components (see Fig. 1):
A module for providing communication between a Web server and a database, created on the basis of CGI (Common Gateway Interface), which allows the software to work with any servers that support this technology, which is the standard for running applications on the Internet. Modules using CGI are executed in the form of executable programs, API - in the form of dynamic libraries. These modules are the only ones specific to various Web servers — all others are independent of the type of servers specified and the communication methods. The modules for searching and formatting results are common for Web-IRBIS 64 and IRBIS64, and are made in the form of dynamic libraries. They are controlled by the communication module and provide search and output of preformatted results in accordance with the transmitted parameters. The final formatting and conversion to HTML is done by the communication module. The Form File Library is the backbone of secure authorized access technology. The developed algorithm will not permanently store search pages and pages for displaying results - they are created when a request for an operation is received and deleted after the process is completed. Therefore, it is impossible to make unauthorized access to all modes from the Internet by direct URL (universal locator - resource locator). Technological databases. Contains information about the registration of remote users and received orders. Static page tree. Used for initial study and as examples to design your server. The Web-IRBIS 64 system is a reliable and convenient platform for the implementation of library Internet applications and their subsequent integration into a single library Internet complex.
Differences between Web-IRBIS 32 and Web-IRBIS 64
The ini file, gateway and frame storage folder names are suffixed with the corresponding version. For example, cgiirbis_64.exe - cgiirbis_32.exe, irbis_server. ini - irbis_32.ini. This difference is necessary for a possible simultaneous installation of 2 versions. All frames of the two versions are in utf-8 format. In the ini file it is possible to change the encoding of frames and search links to WINDOWS-1251 (ANSI). The possibility of independent encodings for frames and links is due to the fact that search links must be written in the URI format, which is transmitted in UTF-8 in Latin (just like in WINDOWS-1251) There are special unifors for working with encodings:- & unifor ("+ 3E" - translation into URI format for transmission to the server. & unifor ("+ 3D" - translation from URI (used by the gateway when working using the GET method). & unifor ("+ 3U" - translation ANSI to UTF8 - used in WEB IRBIS32 for forming links in UTF8 encoding. & Unifor ("+ 3+" - translation of + sign in% 2B for correct transmission of a search query containing the logic OR by reference in the S21ALL parameter - a search query in ISIS language.
In whatever encoding the frames are stored, the gateway produces the output in UTF8 encoding, which allows showing diacrites in IRBIS32 when formatting the found records.
The difference in the data storage format of IRBIS64 and IRBIS32 leads to a difference in the formation of search links, if their encoding is set to UTF8. In IRBIS 32, it is additionally necessary to translate the link into UTF8 using the & unifor ("+ 3U" format. Web-IRBIS 64 - is constantly being improved and modified, new functions and capabilities are being added, integration with other subsystems of the IRBIS64 series is deepening. User support is provided as in the traditional way and via the Internet conference (http: // irbis. *****).
The developers will be grateful for any comments and feedback, as well as for advice on the further development of the system. Write to Mikhail Goncharov (***** @ *** ru) and Konstantin Sboychakov (***** @ *** ru).
Installation of Web-IRBIS 64
General remarks
To install the software on the server, you must run the program wsetup64r.exeincluded in the package. If you do not have a Web server installed, then before installing Web-IRBIS 64, you need to install it. All questions related to the use of servers are not the subject of this manual and should be resolved in accordance with the server documentation.
The general view of the installation directory is shown in Fig. 2.
Figure: 3 The root directory of the distributionWeb-IRBIS 64.
Before installing the product, it is necessary to determine and install (if necessary) according to the instructions the version of the operating system of a number of Windows and the http server (IIS, Apache, etc.). Various versions of Windows and http servers are currently supported.
Windows 2000 + IIS
Windows 2000 + Apache
Windows XP + IIS
Windows XP + Apache
Windows 2003+ Apache
Unlike previous versions, installation paths are not automatically detected and require manual configuration of paths for the directory of HTML files and CGI scripts. You need to define these directories in advance and set the paths when prompted. In addition, it should be borne in mind that the presence of the IRBIS64 server is required and during installation it will be necessary to enter the path to its configuration file.
By default, test and service databases are located in the directory of the IRBIS64 server. You can change these paths in the config file irbis_server.in, which the is always located from the root directory of the operating system (C: \\ Windows, C: \\ WINNT).
It is allowed to use network paths defined in a standard way.
It should be remembered that the tree of HTML-pages of Web-IRBIS 64 in order to save user data is placed in a special directory inside the root directory of HTML-files of your http-server. Therefore, calling Web-IRBIS 64 is carried out as follows: http: //<ИМЯ СЕРВЕРА>/ Irbis64r / index. html. You can change the location of the Web-IRBIS 64 directory either during installation or when it is necessary by standard methods of moving nested directories with appropriate changes to the irbis_server. ini.
Standard installation procedure
To install the full suite of programs, you need about 6MB of free disk space. If an earlier version of Web-IRBIS 64 is already installed on your machine, it is recommended to make a backup copy of the system components. Usually these are form files created or modified during the adaptation of the system, formats and parameters in irbis_server.ini... To start the installation procedure, you need to run the setup program. exe from the root directory of your distribution (see. Figure: 3).
The installer contains two screens.
Figure: 4. The first screen of the Web-IRBIS 64 setup program.
It should be remembered that for different http-servers it is necessary to select the execution option for CGI scripts. The default (except for using IIS) uses the standard CGI and POST request method, which work best on most http servers.
Figure: 5. The second screen of the Web-IRBIS 64 installation program.
The following paths must be specified (see Fig. 5):
· Path to the parametric file of the IRBIS64 server - this file contains paths to databases, access to which will be allowed through the Web interface, to files for working with databases, paths to configuration files for Web pages, temporary files
· Root directory of CGI programs and root directory of WWW page - respectively, the paths to the root directories of the http-server, in which the executable programs (CGI, SCRIPTS) and the directory for HTML documents are located, respectively.
· Gateway type - an executable module (exe) or DLL.
The following directories are created
1. Along the DATAI path from the ini file of the IRBIS64 server, a frames_r \\ ibis folder is created with the MAIN, MAINEX, MAINRDR, MAINRQST, MAINZAKAZ subdirectories
2. In the htdocs directory of the WEB server, the Irbis64r folder is created with subdirectories for scripts and pictures
3. In the cgi (or scripts) directory of the WEB server, the Irbis64r folder is created
4. File irbis_server. ini is written to the WINDOWS directory
The following files are added to the IRBIS64 databases:
5. The following files are added to the IBIS database directory
Free_ekz. pft, fullwebr. pft, insert_export. pft, insert_file_author. pft, insert_search_result. pft, mfull. pft, referings. pft, web_dict. pft, WebNews. pft, zakaz. pft, avhead. srw, dkv. srw, dp. srw, dz. srw, god. srw, tipvid. srw.
6. The following mful files are added to the RDR database directory. pft
The following basket files are added to the RQST database directory. pft, rqst_web. pft
Upon successful completion of the installation procedure, a message appears on the screen.
 |
Figure: 5. Message about successful completion of the Web-IRBIS 64 installation process.
Then it is necessary to test the performance of the resulting configuration of the software package.
Checking the program's functionality after installation
On the screen after entering the address http: //<ИМЯ СЕРВЕРА>/ Irbis64r / index. htmlthe main screen of the Web-IRBIS 64 system should appear (see Fig. 6).
Figure: 6. Start pageWeb-IRBIS 64.
If the main screen of the Web-IRBIS 64 system is not displayed, then you need to check the performance of your http-server and the correctness of the path in the browser and in the file irbis_server.ini... If necessary, you need to manually adjust the paths in the configuration files or the menu of the http server and irbis_server.ini.
Then you need to check access to the sections. In case of impossibility of displaying, carry out the actions described in the previous paragraph.
After that, it is necessary to check the operability of the main mode - (see Fig. 6.). If the paths of the working directory of the programs are set incorrectly, the transition to the construction of the search form is impossible. In this case, you need to match the real paths and paths in the file irbis_server.ini.

Figure: 7. Search results page.
If the search fails or is not performed correctly, you need to verify that the paths are set correctly and that the access requirements are met. It must be remembered that Web-IRBIS 64 requires the ability to write, create and delete files in the IRBIS64 server database directory, defined by the http-server. For most http servers, no additional steps are required. The exception is IIS, which requires additional operations (see below)
If any of the above actions did not lead to localization of the problem, you need to report it to ***** @ *** ru and ***** @ *** ru. The letter must include information about the product version, a configuration file irbis_ server. ini and a detailed description of the problem.

SETTING UP WEB-IRBIS 64
Features of Web-IRBIS operation 64
In general terms, the solution functions as shown in Fig. 8.
Figure: 8. Functional diagram of a typical solution.
Operation of Web-IRBIS 64 is based on the use of form files. The request, processed by the CGI program, forms a response in the form of another HTML form for further work. The answer builds on the predefined form files. To build a response to a CGI request for each command, the irbis-server defined in the file is used. ini - the sequence of outputting form files. These output sequences form a complete HTML page. The output sequences are described below.
The main and only parametric file of Web-IRBIS 64 is irbis-server. ini, which is located in the Windows system directory (for example, winnt, winxp, etc.).
The variant offered in the delivery base is a fully functional example of using the basic default database IRBIS64 (ibis). To connect other databases, you need to make changes to the form files and perform additional settings. For a simple solution to get you started, we recommend that you simply copy your electronic catalog into the ibis database.
Basic commandsWeb-IRBIS 64
Displaying a set of frames (F). Search (S). Show vocabulary terms (T). Order (Z) (Requires authorization). Export (E) (Requires authorization).For each command in the irbis-server. ini there is a hard decryption (name): F \u003d ShowFrames, S \u003d SearchFrames, T \u003d DictionryFrames, Z \u003d ZakazFrames.
Each name corresponds to a value in the form of a string, in which frames are listed separated by commas in the order they are displayed after the command is executed. These commands can be defined differently in different sections for different databases. At the same time, any number of functionally different partitions can exist for one database. The section name is specified by the I21DBN \u003d parameter in the parent link argument string. The command is specified in the same link by the C21COM \u003d parameter. A full description of the possible parameters is given in Table 2.
The Search (S) "- displaying search results and the command" Displaying a set of frames (F) "- provide display of a set of frames in a specified order and display of search results.
The difference between these commands is that if the search result is zero, the SEARCH command returns a message text that is taken from the message file of the webmsg gateway. txt. In the distribution, this is an EMPTY ANSWER.
An example from the section. ShowFrames \u003d header_1.frm, menu_2.frm, search_4.frm, rubrics_5.frm, News_6.frm, RESULT, footer_7.frm.
Figure: 8. Page of free access to the IRBIS database.
Figure: 11. Page showing search results.Modifying Form Files
As mentioned above, all search, weekend, special and additional forms of Web-IRBIS 64 are built using a special technology based on the use of form files. A form file is a "brick", a single block that provides the design and setting of parameters for any Web-IRBIS 64 operation. Any Web-IRBIS 64 page is the result of combining a number of form files (editable and elementary) into a single HTML page.
Figure: 9. Search form type.
What is the reason for using this technology? First of all, this is the provision of maximum flexibility in the design of forms for any database and any mode of Web-IRBIS 64. On the other hand, this is the provision of automatic application of a single design within the corresponding section. This solution provides the ability to create completely different search forms within a single complex. That is, for each database, you can create unique, absolutely different from others, search elements, blocks of elements, modes, output formats, and so on. Web-IRBIS 64 initially includes samples of two fundamentally different search forms. They are an example for building their own forms or adapting existing ones to their databases (see Fig. 9).
The use of form-file technology in the implementation of the security of authorized modes is essential.
The description of the sequence of "gluing" form files for each case is specified in the section of the ini file, which is defined by the I21DBN parameter and the corresponding command C21COM (see above). Modification of search and other forms is carried out by editing the form files of any section. The number of form files is quite large and, generally speaking, unlimited. There are also sets of elementary form files. All of them are edited in the ways that are standard for any HTML files (which they formally are).
As an illustration of the possibilities, the standard delivery uses rather complex framing form files using related graphic elements, CSS (cascading style sheets), a large number of links, and so on. Often users can restrict themselves to a small adaptation of the specified form files: change the names of the library, modes, links, and so on. This allows you to immediately create a normal design for all used forms and quickly get started.
As an example, consider the construction and methods of modifying the form file that creates the extended search form main. frm, which is important for adaptation and customization of Web-IRBIS 64. All search fields, attributes, prefixes (indexes) of search fields and so on are set in it.
With the help of commands and parameters, the user can design any search forms. It is possible to use both user-defined search fields and list fields with a given set of terms.
Each block of the form file main. frm defines the transmission of a specific set of parameters and commands to the gateway. The block always starts with a tag
So, let's take a closer look at what is included in the IRBIS_EX section (Advanced search, the main.frm form file, the header and markup parts will be omitted).
Block of transmission of the parameter of the number of issued documents
|
Portion of issued documents |
So, this block provides a choice of the number of issued documents, while all possible values \u200b\u200band the default value can be changed. For example, if we need possible values \u200b\u200b10, 100, 1000 with the default value of 100, then the block will look like this The next part of the form file is the selection and transmission of the output document format. As already mentioned, the standard delivery uses two types of formats - full and short. However, with minimal changes (or no changes at all), all IRBIS formats used in a particular library can be used (with the exception of formats that include user-defined functions - this can cause distortion or abnormal termination of formatting procedures). |
Search results display format |
Possible meaning The next block - setting the parameters for sorting and refining the query (sequential search) Please note that the maximum number of records for sorting is limited toini file. |
Sorting the issued documents |
Sorting type |
Sequential search |
The next block is the choice of the search subject (not shown in full). When using and modifying this unit, keep in mind the following. In the standard delivery, the top level of the GRSTI rubricator is used as an example. If your databases do not use this kind of heading, the use of this mode is impossible. If you want to use your own rubricator, you need to completely modernize the built-in list - enter your own rubrics and their correspondence to the numerical values \u200b\u200bused. If you do not use the rubricator at all, you can exclude this block or replace it with another necessary one. |
|
Search topics: |
The following interconnected blocks are the most complex in this form and demonstrate not only how to work with the most frequently used keyword search, but also the choice of the type of search, the ability to work with different logic within the field (as mentioned above, the logic “AND "). In addition, the control unit for the term extraction machine is shown (parameter S21P01). Please note that the connection of all blocks into a single structure is carried out precisely by a numerical unique parameter - in our case, "2_"! This parameter can be anything - the only requirement is that it must be unique within the section. That is, if you choose 2_ as a numeric parameter for keywords and associate it with the appropriate prefix NAME \u003d "2_S21P03" VALUE \u003d "(! LANG: K \u003d">, то вы больше не можете использовать его для других полей.!} ATTENTION! A full description of the parameters, their possible values \u200b\u200band default values \u200b\u200bare given in Appendix 1. |

You should pay attention to the example of choosing the substitution flag when working with dictionaries. As mentioned above, the use of dictionaries is possible only for the fields defined in the form file. At the same time, you can define how the terms will be highlighted in dictionaries: check-boxes, with the ability to select several terms, or radio buttons, with the ability to select only one term. |

The manual summarizes the experience of introducing ABIS "IRBIS" in the Irkutsk Regional State Universal Scientific Library named after II Molchanov-Sibirskiy for the automation of library processes; contains a characteristic and description of the main features of the system, examples of bibliographic description of documents, a methodology for compiling a bibliographic index using IRBIS. The purpose of the publication is to help libraries in the process of transferring traditional library work to automatic mode to meet the increasing information demands of readers. © Irkutsk Regional State universal scientific library them. I. I. Molchanov-Sibirskiy, 2013 FROM THE CONTRACTORS A characteristic feature of the current stage in the development of librarianship in Russia is the so-called “digital divide” (“information inequality”). While in one library almost the entire collection is entered into an electronic catalog and a full-scale automated service for readers is carried out (including lending, informing about new arrivals, etc.), in another, automation takes its first timid steps: the automated library information system (ABIS) acquired just the other day, librarians are reading the dry lines of the installation instructions, trying to enter the first bibliographic descriptions. Bridging this digital divide is a top priority for the library community. A reader from the provinces should receive the same full-fledged access to library services as a resident of the capital. The most important tool for eliminating the information inequality is the exchange of professional experience, the accumulation of this experience in the professional press and its dissemination in the librarian community. This manual contains 10 years of experience in the use of ABIS "IRBIS" in IOGUNB them. II Molchanov-Sibirskiy for the automation of library processes: a brief description of the system is given, its main features are listed, examples of a bibliographic description of the main types of documents are given, a methodology for compiling a bibliographic index using "IRBIS" is given. The manual is intended for libraries embarking on the difficult but exciting path of library automation. We hope that it will help to translate into a practical plane the discussion of many aspects of the implementation of ABIS "IRBIS64" and thus improve the quality of information services for library readers. INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF IRBIS Fundamentals of ABIS "IRBIS" The automated information and library system (ALIS) "IRBIS" is a system of complex automation of library processes, built on a modular basis. "IRBIS" is a typical integrated solution for the automation of basic library processes and is intended for use in libraries of any type and profile. Having an optimal price / quality ratio, IRBIS has gained wide recognition in the community of professional librarians (this is evidenced by the diagram below, which shows the dynamics of distribution of ALIS in the Russian Federation).
Advantages of "IRBIS". ABIS "IRBIS64" has many advantages:
History of the creation of "IRBIS". "IRBIS" is the legal successor of the "CDS / ISIS" library automation system, created in the 60s. commissioned by UNESCO. CDS / ISIS ran on IBM mainframes and was originally intended to automate internal processes at UNESCO. However, since 1985, UNESCO began to promote CDS / ISIS as a system for libraries and museums, for which the Latin American and Caribbean Center on Health Sciences Information, also known as BIREME, carried out a port of the system to MS-DOS. In 1995, he also released a Windows version called WinISIS. Below is a screenshot of the main window of WinISIS (English version). Through the efforts of UNESCO, WinISIS began to spread throughout the countries of the world, for which UNESCO selected several national distributors of WinISIS. In Russia, the State Public Scientific and Technical Library of Russia (RNSTL of Russia) became the distributor. At the State Public Library for Science and Technology, the system was not only translated into Russian, but also its user interface was significantly redesigned, after which the State Public Library for Science and Technology began commercial distribution of the system under the name "IBIS" - "Integrated Library Information System" (traces of the original name are still visible in the name of the database EC and some worksheets). However, as it turned out, "IBIS" violated the trademark of the company of the same name, therefore the name was changed to "IRBIS" - "Integrated Expandable Library and Information System". At the same time, from the point of view of the data storage format and the logic of their processing, “IRBIS” remained compatible with “WinISIS”.
