Projects & Programs
Share the Knowlege Project
The
Share the Knowledge Program is a joint project with a goal
to distribute sport science, physical education and sport
books to institutions that do not have the financial resources
to buy them. Human Kinetics Publishers (HKP) is donating
books that are not fit for resale (but are highly usable)
to institutes in developing countries who are in need of literature
for study, research and practical work in sport science, physical
education, sport and fitness. The program is organized by
the International Council of Sport Science and Physical Education
(ICSSPE), supported by the International Association for Sport
Information with financial support for the transport of the
books provided by the International Olympic Committee.
Consult
the following three documents for detailed information on
the project, including which institutions are eligible to
apply for books, what institutions have received books and
the form where the applicant can indicate the resources needed.

International Indexing Contributor's Project and Rewards
IASI
is a partner with SIRC: Sport Research, the producer of the
international sport database, SPORTDiscus. For many
decades IASI members have been encouraged to contribute unique
sport records to the database. Australia's National Sport
Information Centre, France's contributions via their sport
sciences database Heracles, the Amateur Athletic Foundation
of Los Angeles and the IOC's Olympic Studies Centre are presently
contributors along with individuals in various countries.
The richness and comprehensiveness of the database depends
on these contributors.
SIRC
holds workshops on indexing usually at the annual meetings
or by special arrangement. In addition a number of products
are available to the indexer, the Thesaurus and the Technical
Manual and other rewards. See the following
sections of SIRC website for further information:
