UNIFIED SYSTEM OF SCIENTIFIC INFORMATION AS A STIMULUS
 FOR INTEGRATION AND DEVELOPMENT OF SCIENCE

Abstract

The subject of research is information systems that allow you to integrate scientific knowledge, including in the field of law enforcement. 
 The purpose of the article is to confirm or disprove hypothesis about the possibility of creating a unified system of scientific information as well as to determine the elements of such a system. 
 The methodology of the study is a formal legal analysis of the normative legal acts and practice of functioning of scientific information systems.
 The main results and scope of their application. Science has accumulated a huge amount of information that needs to be systematized. The research infrastructure does not allow you to quickly find the necessary information. The consequence of this is the problem of multiple independent scientific discoveries, plagiarism. There is also no standard for scientific research, which is why works written using the scholastic method are often found mainly in the humanitarian sphere. There are various search platforms that combine databases of publications in scientific journals and patents. These platforms simplify the search for information, but very poorly systematize it. These systems are also aimed at ranking publications, journals, and researchers. There are electronic encyclopedias that systematize knowledge. However, these projects also have serious drawbacks, mainly related to their focus on the non-scientists: 1. Insufficient expert level in the presentation and evaluation of the material. 2. There is no status of a scientific publication, which makes it impossible to publish scientific works using this platform. 3. There is no task to integrate scientific knowledge.
 Conclusions. It is proposed to create a unified system of scientific information that will facilitate the search for the necessary data, make it possible to quickly get acquainted with advanced scientific developments, and increase the level of research, including through the introduction of the appropriate standard. This system can integrate the func-tions of an electronic scientific journal, an electronic library, an electronic textbook, as well as a search platform that provides the implementation of scientometric functions. The proposed system will be regularly and promptly updated as new scientific papers be-come available. Information in the system will be evaluated by experts for its ranking and use, including for related research. The system is primarily a source of publishing scien-tific information. The system will allow an objective approach to the selection of applica-tions for financial support for research, including grants, ensuring transparency of this procedure.
