Database “the bibliographic directory of the kalmyk expatriate community”: the information basis, structure of the data and processing algorithms
Abstract
The article examines the structure of the database “The Bibliographic Directory of the Kalmyk Expatriate Community” implemented to be used within the local area network. The data structure and some processing algorithms are described. Development of such a database is largely determined by the need to study the unexplored pages of life of expatriate Kalmyks.
The developed database contains unique research materials of national and global importance and allows to comprehensively analyze the data bulk. The database is full-text searchable, every bibliographic record connected with corresponding texts of publications found in the archives and largest libraries of Russia. This allows a researcher to review a number of rare sources.
