You FoundIt! A Wealth of Government Science Information C’mon in! We’ll show you!
What is It ? Tons of FREE federally funded and international science research information from: • Department of Energy (DOE) • Other U.S. government science agencies • Worldwide national science organizations
Where Do I Find It? www.osti.gov OSTI is the Department of Energy’s Office of Scientific and Technical Information, whose mission is to advance science by making scientific and technical information (STI) broadly available. To accomplish this, OSTI provides an array of web tools and capabilities designed to deliver science to desktops everywhere.
Science information from every inhabited continent with just one query Science info and research resultsfrom 14U.S. federal agencies Gateway to keyscience information provided by DOE The Big 3 Federated Search Engines at OSTI
Wait! What is Federated Search? Most Science Info Is in the Deep Web Federated search drills down to the deep web where scientific databases reside Surface Web Unlike Google, Yahoo!, etc., federated search engines provide pathways to hard-to-find science information Deep Web Databases Students need informationfrom the deep web.
#1 of the BIG 3 (U.S. DOE-sponsored and other resources) Search key resources from DOE OSTITo pick resource(s) and/or to search by field(s), see Advanced Search
