In existence since 1904, The Information Telegraph Agency of Russia -
ITAR-TASS - is one of the world's largest international information
agencies. The successor to the Soviet TASS news agency, it was re-named
in 1992, when Russia proclaimed its sovereignty following the collapse
of the USSR. It has retained its status of being the state central
information agency.
Previously available to only a select few, the agency's resources are
now available to anyone who is interested, both within and outside
Russia; the mass media, academic institutions, organisations and
private individuals.
To better serve a rapidly growing number of subscribers, the agency has
developed a new set priorities designed to streamline and improve key
aspects of its operation: how topics are selected, expansion of news
coverage, and timely delivery of news on the wire. As the very nature
of news production continues to evolve, the agency will continually
make use of the very latest available technologies in order to make
real-time news distribution faster and more efficient.
ITAR-TASS relies on a widespread net of correspondents. Currently, It
has 74 bureaus and offices in Russia and other CIS countries and 65
bureaus in 62 foreign countries. ITAR-TASS also cooperates with more
than 80 foreign news agencies.
ITAR-TASS' editorial and other desks process information from
correspondents, check and analyze facts, and translate into five
foreign languages.
ITAR-TASS has accumulated a rich body of experience throughout the
course of its 95-year history. The agency's widespread network of
correspondents, its state-of-the-art means of distributing and storing
information, and a well-oiled mechanism of cooperation between its
editorial, reference and reporter departments, all enable ITAR-TASS to
provide quick and full coverage of all kinds of events shaping Russia
and the world.
ITAR-TASS also operates a photo service, the largest of its kind in
Russia. This unique service offers pictures of the latest breaking
developments, available for prompt transmission in digital form.
Clients also have access to an extremely rich photo archive dating back
to the beginning of the 20th century.
Also available is the INFO-TASS electronic data bank, which contains
all agency materials produced since 1987, multimedia products, and
unique reference books on Russia and other CIS member states, which are
regularly updated.
On a daily basis, ITAR-TASS produces and transmits 700 newspaper pages
