An astronomy library's quest for greater access to literature and dataChristopher ErdmannHarvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics

To Start...The NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) is the lifeblood of astronomical research.

● Disciplinary Repository, +10M bibliographic records

● Used by all astronomers (10M users total)

● Search literature, citations, related datasets & metrics

● 3M full-text docs, OA (arXiv) + publisher content

● Indexed by Google, Google Scholar, Bing

If it isn't in the ADS, it doesn't exist!

ADS Before & After

ADS API

Tagging the LiteratureCreating greater access to the literature & data by making associations, e.g. linking project instrumentation & data to the literature.

Almost there and yet so far away

Gray or Grey LiteratureInformally published written material that may be difficult to trace via conventional channels such as published journals and monographs because it is not published commercially or is not widely accessible.--Wikipedia
