What's New

March 21, 2006, Chicago - 

A new option has now been added to the "Resources" tab.   The bottom choice is now an "Indexes" option, which will lead you to a page dedicated to digitized technical report indexes from the mid-twentieth century.  Currently and for the foreseeable future the concentration will be on volumes of the U.S. Government Research Reports.  The USGRR was a invaluable resource used for the compilation of our bibliography, and was a precursor to NTIS' Government Reports and Announcements Index.

Aric Ahrens, the Government Documents Depository Coordinator at the Paul V. Galvin Library, and Project Coordinator for Contrails, has been invited to reprise his presentation at the Depository Library Council Fall '05 Meeting (available here).  The presentation is scheduled for 2:35 PM on May 4th, 2006 at the Illinois State Library Annual Government Depository Conference.  The conference draws government documents librarians from across the state.

Contrails.  Digital trails of technical literature formed in the wake of aerospace research.
