1. National Workshop on ANSN Capacity Building IT modules OAP, Thailand 25 th – 27 th June 2013 KUNJEER Sameer B e-Library proposal and further enhancements

2. Salient features Taxonomy Discussions Presentation Outline

3. Salient Features e-Library is key element for Capacity Building. Purpose of e-Library is to share content in form of documents or knowledge among ANSN member states. Sharing is a bi-directional process and so accessing content is equally important to uploading content. Classification of documents Based on whether an ANSN activity document or general nuclear safety document (also whether in English or regional language) For ANSN activity documents, two level structure. First level is the “group” level, whereas second level is the “item” level. For general documents, pertaining to nuclear safety, only one level. i.e. item level.

4. 4 Salient Features Attributes/metadata that can be used for “group”: * Attributes indicated in green would be automatically populated. AttributeStatus (M or O)Remarks TitleMCorresponds to group title or name DescriptionMCan contain following information: Objectives of material Intended audience Level of depth (beginners, intermediate, specialist) whether at group or item level? Topical groupMCorresponds to ANSN topical groups. In case of miscellaneous content, a separate category such as “Others” can be created. Thematic AreaOCorresponds to thematic areas within each topical group as per IAEA pre-defined categories. This list should be reviewed by Technical Officers. Access LevelOOnly applicable to ANSN activity documents, which are uploaded by IAEA ANSN management team. Issuing OrganizationMCorresponds to name of organization responsible for this group of documents. KeywordsMCorresponds to one or more keywords, separated by semi-colons. Keywords can be defined from the IAEA Safety Glossary. ContactMCorresponds to name of author or person responsible for this group. Date CreatedMPublishing date, grouping date or date when the particular activity was conducted. LanguageMOne of the pre-defined languages. If same material exists in several languages, it is suggested to have one item for each language and associate them all to the same document.

5. 5 Salient features Attributes/metadata that can be used for “items”: * For general nuclear safety document, attributes for “group” can be merged with attributes of “item” to make it a flat or single level structure. *Attributes indicated in green would be automatically populated. AttributeStatus (M or O) Remarks TitleMCorresponds to item title or name File LocationMCorresponds to fully specified URL for files. Should be kept empty in case of manual distribution. Media FormatMOne of the pre-defined formats. File SizeMThe size of file in bytes; if size is unspecified, put 0 Date uploadedMDate on which file is uploaded.

6. 6 Salient Features Taxonomy can be aligned to existing ANSN topical groups, instead of technical areas, activity areas and facility types. Within each topical group, thematic areas can be introduced in line with IAEA SSG-16 standards. Decision for same can be asked from IAEA Technical Officers as well as ANSN topical group coordinators. Indexing of the items can be based on unique numbers to facilitate faster retrieval. All items can be stored in centralized ANSN e-Library. ITSG members can coordinate for upload of items in regional languages to centralized ANSN library. IAEA staff in close coordination with TO and TG coordinators to continue uploading for ANSN activities. Keywords for each document can be pre-defined based on IAEA glossary. List of keywords should be kept simple as full-text search would be enabled for centralized ANSN e-Library.

7. 7 Salient Features Almost most of the documents would be open for public. Documents pertaining to expert missions and specific ANSN activities would be available only to registered ANSN Level 2 users. Search of content will be based on keywords and/or full-text. Google search appliances can be leveraged to facilitate local language search of documents. Keyword based search should be at group level only, which implies that title or name of group should contain the necessary keywords. Migration of existing documents from national center websites to centralized ANSN e- Library to be discussed and appropriate approach to be decided. Discussion forums and versioning of documents should also be considered.

8. 8 Existing Taxonomy Since 2006, taxonomy for classification of ANSN documents has been developed and evolved. Prior to this, the classification was limited only for the “Education and Training” documents. Later, it was necessary to improve taxonomy and rules to adapt to the thematic expansion of ANSN. Classification was needed about “documents” and “items”. Also the mandatory rule to select a topic each category (activity areas, technical areas and facility types) was not very productive. Therefore, the current taxonomy evolved. Database was designed in a hierarchical structure consisting of following: Documents: Basic entity to be entered into database. May consist of single physical items or multiple items. But a document has typically a single group of authors and deals with a single subject. A document doesn’t necessarily belong to a group, but may belong to several groups. Groups: Corresponds to a set or collection of documents, which are individually entered as documents as described above, and then made part of group. Items: Corresponds to final physical entity. Can exist in any form such as.pdf,.doc,.ppt, etc. Also can exist in multiple languages.

21. 21 Considerations for TG members Should we have separate repositories of content/documents?  Regional language (maintained by individual national center website)  Centralized e-Library (maintained by IAEA) Location of centralized e-Library? (based on above criteria) Search interface customized according to above criteria (options to search locally based on language or centralized repository) How existing documents can be re-classified as per proposed taxonomy (manually or programmatically)? Any constraints involved in migration of documents (in English) from national center websites to centralized ANSN e-Library ? Security of e-Library?
