Adopt-A-Doc

Please pass this along to your friends! An innovative way to preserve technical literature that will otherwise be difficult to access.

From the website:

Help make important research available online by adopting a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) technical report. There are more than 200,000 DOE technical reports in need of digitization. In fact, most DOE technical reports from the 1940s to 1991 are still only available in hard copy or microfiche. This means that important research is not easily accessible by researchers and the public.

Why would I want to Adopt-A-Doc?

You may find a technical report that you want to share with others or you think worthy of making broadly available on the Web to support the advancement of science. When you search for important science information in your area of interest, you can choose to sponsor the digitization of any adoptable technical report. The cost is $85 (approximately the same cost as ordering a hard copy). Discounts for larger scale projects may be available. For additional information contact Susan Tackett at 865-576-5699 or tacketts@osti.gov.
