Abstract: The results of scientific work and experience of the FSBSI “Central Scientific Agricultural Library” (CSAL) in including authoritye data in the information resources in the form of an in-house generation database “Authority file of names of scientific institutions of the AIC” have been considered. The use of authority data as an open multi-functional resource allows organizing new forms and methods of information service of users. The results of research for updating and replenishing the content of authority data on names of scientific institutions of the AIC, on developing the user services and improving the search in the information resources are presented. It is noted that the dynamics of reforming the scientific institutions requires for ongoing monitoring and updating the authority data. The updating of the content comprised checking and revising the authority records, logging on to other records and information resources. The works for improving the representation of reference information on scientific institutions in the database are described. A new option “Official name” has been formed as a search element in which a form of an institution’s name indicated in the statutory documents is given for the functioning scientific institutions. The formation and use of authority data in the specialized information-retrieval system promotes integrating the CSAL information resources thereby widening choices of users as to the access to the bibliographic and full-text resources. In 2020 the database is replenished with the names of the AIC scientific institutions in the scope of 70 authority records for 25 scientific institutions in agriculture, forestry, fishing industry, water economy and reclamation, plant and animal protection.
