Abstract

The New Zealand Computer Science Technical Reports collection provides a central index to over 32.000 working papers distributed in archives around the world. The collection is not formally catalogued and cataloguing information is available only for a minority of the documents. However it is possible to access and index the full text of the documents, not simply the title and abstract, as is common in bibliographic databases. Techniques for using this expanded keyword access to the full text so as to create 'approximate' document descriptions are being investigated to allow the user to carry out searches similar to (although not as precise as) those supported by formally catalogued systems
