Knowledge Treasury

Abstract

Knowledge Treasury is a multifunctional informa-tion management system allowing the logically uniform searching of various databases, the quick browsing of database content and the creation of new knowledge products from database content. The new system, developed by the author and his colleagues, offers new features and services com-pared to the traditional scope of databases. The article presents the theoretical and technical solu-tions necessary to the operation of the system; its structure and functions; the searching options in the databases; and the further options to manage search records. The system has been operating in an experimental phase at the National Technical Information Centre and Library of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. Know- ledge Treasury includes three years’ issues from International Marketing and Corporate Manage-ment, published within the series of Publications on Technology and Economics.
