As of March 2020, the database contains more than 22 million articles from more than 3,600 publications.[5]A typical month (in 2012) saw more than 30 million accesses from 2.2 million unique visitors,[6]and is the largest and most comprehensive database of its kind in Japan. Although the database is multidisciplinary, the largest portion of the queries it receives is in the humanities and social sciences field, perhaps because CiNii is the only database that covers Japanese scholarly works in this field (as opposed to the natural, formal, and medical sciences which benefit from other databases).[7]
Database identifiers
editThe database assigns a unique identifier,NII Article ID(NAID), to each of its journal article entries.[6]A different identifier,NII Citation ID(NCID or thư chí ID) akaNACSIS-CAT Record ID,is used for books.
NCID examples
edit- NCIDBA04004867for the 1951 Little, Brown edition and ofThe Catcher in the Rye
- NCIDBB17611495for the 2010 Penguin edition ofThe Catcher in the Rye
- NCIDBA36680090for a 1952 edition ofKiken na nenrei(Nguy 険な niên linh),NCIDBN01880084for a 1964 edition ofRai-mugi batake de tsukamaete(ライ mạch điền でつかまえて), andNCIDBA61718322for a 2003 edition ofKyatchā in za rai(キャッチャー・イン・ザ・ライ), all three being Japanese translations ofThe Catcher in the Rye
- NCIDBB13715590for a 1997 edition ofMai tian li de shou wang zhe( mạch điền lí đích thủ vọng giả ), a Chinese translation ofThe Catcher in the Rye.
Identifiers are also assigned to authors of books, and of journal articles, in two separate series (so an author may have a different identifier value in each). For example, Shinsaku Kimoto isDA00432173for books and9000002393144for journal articles.
