The Institute of Information Science (IZUM) is a public institution established by the Government of the Republic of Slovenia as an information infrastructural service for Slovenian science, culture and education. Along with other agents of information activities in the country, it ensures Slovenia an entrance to the streams of the modern world's information society.
Building is located in the centre of Maribor in Slovenia. It was built in 1965 and constructed by Ivan Kocmut. At first it was used for other purposes but nowadays serves as Institute of information science.
IZUM emerged from the Computer Centre of the University of Maribor (RCUM), which transformed from a classical organisation of this type into a modern information infrastructure centre between 1980 and 1990.
