Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia is the largest European research institution in Geophysics and Volcanology.
Its main mission is the study of geophysical phenomena in both the solid and fluid components of the Earth. This task includes the development and maintenance of monitoring instrumentation and infrastructures, as well as real time surveillance and early warning.
INGV cooperates with universities and other research institutions.One of the most important cooperation is with PNRA Consortium (INGV is part of the consortium) in the frame of national research programs in Antarctica. The activities are charaterized by the seismic, geomagnetic and ionospheric monitoring, observation, data analysis and research during the summer and the winter season at Baia Terra Nova and Concordia.
Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia
INGV Libraries Network
The network is organized in 7 libraries located in Milano, Bologna, Pisa, Roma, Napoli, Catania and Palermo
Libraries support INGV research activities Libraries promote and develop electronic resources in the fields of geophysics and volcanology
INGV Libraries Network
Documentary collections: 15,000 books500 print journals 2000 e-journals200 ancient and rare books
Specialized in: seismology, volcanology, physics of the earth’s interior, seismic and volcanic hazard and risk, geochemistry, physics of the upper atmosphere, geomagnetism

Policy
Earth-prints is a tool to support research in Earth Sciences and to facilitate communication and cooperation in these disciplines between scientists of different countries
The criteria for acceptance are:Documents must be relevant in the fields of Atmosphere, Cryosphere, Hydrosphere, Solid Earth, and Earth Sciences disciplines in GeneralDocuments must be ready to enter in the process of communicationThe required metadata must be correct
An archived document is in the public domain and will always remain available to the public
Archive promotion strategies
Frequent meetings with researchers
Deposit of oral presentations and posters before the beginning of a geophysics conference
Communication to the participants of the meeting that the document is available on www.earth-prints.org
Archive Logo + deposited to be added to conference posters
Partecipation to geophysics and library science meetings
Brief communication on specialized mailing lists and newsletters
Communication between researchers
Partnership with other institutions

Comments on earth-prints.org
Good compromise between expectations of scientists and librarians
A disciplinary forum permits the exchange of scientific results and documents
Improve the impact of Geophysical research on the scientific communityAn article published on the web it is cited 7,5 times more then a printed article (Lawrence S., Nature, 2001)
The final question is…Why should I use Earth-prints?
To ensure global availability and preservation of my work To make my research available even before publication (many publishers allow this)To make unpublished material available To participate in the Open Access movement, removing cost and permission barriers for users of scientific and scholarly research
