Recently, a large quantity of digital contents is distributed on the Internet. Therefore, it is important for us to consider how we can add the value and increase the access to our library bibliographic information metadata. Availability from multiple channels and providing link to the full text may become a solution. This paper describes the case of Japan Atomic Energy Agency Library, as an example to improve our library database that is providing the R&D information (academic papers, oral presentation, and technical reports) of our institute. JAEA library provides this information through JAEA Originated Papers Searching System (JOPSS). This system was improved by providing access channels for the metadata and link to full text. In addition, user interface was constructed based on the information seeking behavior.
