INSPIRE

From the webpage:

CERN, DESY, Fermilab and SLAC have built the next-generation High Energy Physics (HEP) information system, INSPIRE, which empowers scientists with innovative tools for successful research at the dawn of an era of new discoveries.

INSPIRE combines the successful SPIRES database content, curated at DESY, Fermilab and SLAC, with the Invenio digital library technology developed at CERN. INSPIRE is run by a collaboration of the four labs, and interacts closely with HEP publishers, arXiv.org, NASA-ADS, PDG, and other information resources.

INSPIRE represents a natural evolution of scholarly communication, built on successful community-based information systems, and provides a vision for information management in other fields of science.

INSPIRE builds on SPIRES’ expertise

  • Decades of trusted, curated content
  • Experience in managing a discipline’s wide information resources
  • Close relationship with the worldwide user community

What are the major innovations of INSPIRE?

  • Author disambiguation for high-quality profiles and improved search capabilities
  • Fulltext search and snippet display for access restricted content
  • Faster results
  • Variety of search and display options
  • Detailed record pages
  • Searchable fulltext for 5 years of arXiv content
  • Figures and searchable figure captions extracted from 5 years of arXiv articles
  • LHC experimental notes

What will be available soon?

  • Personalized features (bookshelves, author pages, paper claiming)
  • More APIs for third parties to build new tools
  • More historical content
  • Conference slides

Deeply cool digital library system from CERN.
