详细

This paper discusses the ways of optimizing the information resources of the social institutions of the Russian Academy of Sciences and those on the humanities based on the results of the monitoring, which was conducted in 2017. For different types of information resources, the optimization model is planned within the project of a unified information system of the Russian Academy of Sciences on the basis of their integration, aggregation, and coordination. It is suggested that the maximization of results at specified expenditures for the creation of information resources should be the criterion of optimization. It is stated that the most promising types of resources for the optimization are catalogs, bibliographic indexes and databases, electronic libraries, reference and encyclopedic resources, as well as lexicographic resources.
