	note = {This article discussed the applicability of using Google search appliance (GSA) to search digital library collections. According to the result, it was not easy to use such an approach, however, it should be a good alternative to attract more readers and expand library accessibility. Librarians could consider trying GSA in future practices to explore how well it would fit to specific situations.},

	abstract = {Google Search has established a new standard for information retrieval which did not exist with previous generations of library search facilities. The INIS hosts one of the world\&apos;s largest collections of published information on the peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology. It offers on-line access to a unique collection of 3.7 million bibliographic records and 483,000 full texts of non-conventional (grey) literature. This large digital library collection suffered from most of the well-known shortcomings of the classic library catalogue. Searching was complex and complicated, it required training in Boolean logic, full-text searching was not an option, and response time was slow. An opportune moment to improve the system came with the retirement of the previous catalogue software and the adoption of GSA as an organization-wide search engine standard. INIS was quick to realize the potential of using such a well-known application to replace its on-line catalogue. This paper presents the advantages and disadvantages encountered during three years of GSA use. Based on specific INIS-based practice and experience, this paper also offers some guidelines on ways to improve classic collections of millions of bibliographic and full-text documents, while reaping multiple benefits, such as increased use, accessibility, usability, expandability and improving user search and retrieval experiences.
