Information as Shared Resources

Japanese patent information in CAS Databases accounts for about 40% of all in the world and journal information accounts for about 12%.

JAICI has been playing an important role of inputting Japanese technical information which international communities are interested in to CAS Databases since 1982.

JAICI experts, who are knowledgeable in the science and technology fields, index and abstract the information from scientific literature and patents in Japan, update this information daily and make it accessible to the world in cooperation with CAS staff in Columbus, Ohio.

Processing of the information in Japan makes it easier to clarify unclear points with authors and acquire additional information, thus enabling accurate indexing of the information. Expertise in the CAS indexing policies makes JAICI's services and user support highly reputed activities.
