NTIS Provides Free/Cheap Electronic Delivery of Technical Reports

By Barbara Quint

The National Technical Information Service (NTIS) is the federal
government's leading delivery outlet for scientific and technical reports,
especially those produced under government contract. On its Web site, NTIS
has begun electronic delivery of all its reports dating to 1997. Reports
numbering fewer than 20 pages are free; those over 20 pages are $8.95. The
scanned reports appear in Adobe PDF. Some documents are retrieved through
links to other federal agency Web sites; however, NTIS promises that the
archived copies of all documents will remain available through its site.
"One Search. One Source. One Solution." is the banner cry of the Web site
upgrade project.
