The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for maintaining an organized and automated archiving and retrieval system including a personal bibliography of original documents or other original real objects as well as an electronic archive containing copies of such original real objects with guaranteed access. Essentially this is done by establishing a machine and / or human readable “unique identifier” (UID) distributed with each original real object, a so-called personal archive allowing a person (or a group of persons) to maintain a personal bibliography, a managed storage containing electronic copies of the distributed original real objects, and means for a controlled, but guaranteed access to the stored electronic copies. The unique identifier UID will be established and controlled, usually by a service provider, and attached to each original (document) when it is distributed, usually by the publisher, so that it can be read by the user, preferably with a simple reader for entering it electronically into his personal archive. The personal archive may be maintained either by the person or by another (or the same) service provider, but is personalized in the sense that the user determines the contents of his / her archive. A controlled access system with access certificates, which may be time-limited, issued to the requesting user guarantees user access to the stored electrinic copies. Access control will again be provided as service, be it by the publisher or any of the service providers mentioned.

A written document (hereinafter referred to as a “work,” on electronic format which includes, stories, novels, education texts, biographies, compilations, collections, anthologies, tracts, and any other traditional format for relatively extensive texts) provides access to reference, bibliography and / or definition material through an electronic software capability associated with the work. Depending upon reader access information or characteristics (e.g., age, grade, proficiency, or position within the work or any other identifiable reader characteristic or access limitation), any request for reference material, definitions, explanations, translations, or other material provided in the associated software capability is automatically limited by system acknowledgement of the reader access information or characteristics. As the reader's access information or characteristics change, the quality and / or quantity and / or format of requested information with respect to a work changes.

The invention relates to a standard effectiveness judging system, which is characterized in that the system comprises a standard resource acquisition module, which is used for acquiring images of standard resources; a standard resource processing module, which is used for recognizing and generating dual-layer electronic texts of the standard resources; an index creating module, which is used for creating indexes for the texts and storing the index in a preset standard full-text memory; a bibliography extraction module, which is used for extracting a first bibliography from the standard resources; a bibliography comparison module, which is used for comparing the first bibliography extracted by the bibliography extraction module with a bibliography which is stored in an external bibliography memory and judging whether to store the extracted bibliography in a standard bibliography memory or not; a bibliography management module, which is used for storing the bibliographies of the standard resources and establishing a correlation between the bibliographies and the indexes; and a verification module, which is used for receiving a second bibliography from the external part, verifying the second bibliography and storing the second bibliography in a preset main standard memory after verification.
