Support to Transition the Cold Regions Bibliography and the Antarctic Bibliography to mainstream bibliographic search systems

寒区书目项目通过确保学生、研究人员和其他对极地研究感兴趣的人获得和传播有关该地区的信息，满足了保存所有科学学科的国际极地科学研究记录的迫切需要。在过去的十年里，美国地质研究所一直支持和维护南极书目，作为寒区书目项目的一部分。因特网搜索引擎的技术进步使研究人员更容易找到关于南极洲的同行评审文献，而不需要书目学家预先挑选。这一事实，加上鼓励研究人员在同行评审的期刊上发表他们的研究结果，以及基于网络的科学出版物数据库的出现，使得更广泛的社区更容易获得研究结果。考虑到这些因素和因特网搜索引擎的进步，决定制定一项计划，促进书目向主流出版物资源的过渡。该计划将保持对现有材料、可搜索书目数据库、《南极学报》及其前身出版物的访问，2000年代初设计的《南极书目》网站的格式现已过时。目前的《南极书目》搜索软件需要每年支付许可费，已不再是可搜索书目数据库的标准。该网站将重新设计，可搜索的数据库将转移到一个开源搜索软件，目前在美国许多图书馆使用。书目数据以两种格式存在。这两种格式将合并用于搜索目的，以提供统一的界面。一旦网站修改完毕，搜索平台投入使用，就可以将网站作为档案进行维护。

The Cold Regions Bibliography Project has served a critical need in preserving the international polar science research record across all scientific disciplines by ensuring access to and dissemination of the information on the regions to students, researchers, and others interested in polar research.For the last decade, the American Geological Institute has supported and maintained the Antarctic Bibliography as part of the Cold Regions Bibliography Project. Technological advances in Internet search engines have made it easier for researchers to find peer-reviewed literature on Antarctica without pre-selection by bibliographers. This fact combined with the fact that researchers are encouraged to publish their results in peer-reviewed journals and the emergence of web-based scientific publication databases have made research results much more accessible to a broader community. Considering these factors and the advances in Internet search engines, it was decided to develop a plan to facilitate the transition of the bibliography to mainstream publication resources. This plan will maintain access to existing materials, the searchable bibliographic database, the Antarctic Journal, and the Journal's predecessor publications.The web site for the Antarctic Bibliography, designed in the early 2000s, is now in a format that is outdated. The current search software for the Antarctic Bibliography requires annual license fees and is no longer the norm for searchable bibliographic databases. The web site will be re-designed, and the searchable database will be moved to an open-source search software now in current use throughout the U.S. in many libraries. The bibliographic data exists in two formats. These two formats will be merged for search purposes to provide a unified interface. Once the website is revised and the search platform is operational, it will be possible to maintain the site as an archive.
