One useful feature of EDB is that if the citation you retrieve is also in our online catalog, you get a message to that effect. EDB currently contains almost four million records dating back to 1974. EDB shows our holdings if we own the item. This database, from the National Technical Information Service, contains U.S. government-sponsored research, development and engineering reports from the Department of Energy, Department of Defense, NASA, and many other agencies. Also included are software and translations, as well as reports prepared by non-U.S. governments.
Subjects span the physical, biological and social sciences and engineering.
The database, containing over one million records, covers from 1980 to 1996. To access visit the Research Library's Web page, selecting Electronic Databases. You can get all the details by consulting our monthly training schedule on the Web. In addition to the Library databases described above, Laboratory staff have access to other internal resources that can be useful in locating Los Alamos reports. Contact the Report Library for assistance.
