Established in 1962 in the Libraryof Congress with thesupport of the National Science Foundation, the NationalReferral Center for Science and'Technology was given the responsibility ofidentifying all significant informationresources in the fields of science and technology; acquiring data describing thespecialized capabilities of these resources; and providingguidance about theiruse.This guidancewas to be provided through direct assistancein response to requests forreferral service and through the publication of directoriesand guides in various subjectfields.With this directory, the Center beginsto fulfill the latter of these two functions,initiating a publications program which will includethe issuance ofa subsequent directory for the social sciences, the preparation ofa variety of listings in more specializedareas, and the recurrent updating and revision of all ofthese. This directory has beendrawn from the central register ofinformation resources being built up on a continuing basis by the National ReferralCenter.Because that register is still evolving and growing rapidly at the time ofpublication, the directory itself must be considered as a preliminary and exploratory effort ratherthan as a properly comprehensive guide,or even a properly selective one.Many resources of known significance have been omitted,for lack of dataor other reasons; some resources of uncertain value have beenincluded because of thatvery uncertainty; descriptions of services and functions are frequently less clear than could be desired,for lack of definitive terminology.These and other constraintsmust await future correction. The selection ofresources included in the directory, however,serves to illustrate the concept that underlies the National Referral Center'sefforts to alleviate the problem of scientific communication by guiding scientists andengineers to resources capable of meeting their specific information needs.This concept is inherentin the extremely broad interpretation givento the term "resource."Included under this interpretation libraries and other traditional bibliographic services; centralizedinformation centers capable of providing processed and evaluated data; professionalsocieties and other organizations throughwhich contactcan be made with individual specialists; industrial firms willing to extend their information servicesbeyond theirown organization; Government agencies or offices able to provide assistance inspecific areas of interest; and many other resources which make scientificand technical information available in some form. Each entry in this volume hasbeen submittedto the organization it describes in order or institution to insure that the text accuratelyreflects the activities of the resources selected. The entries are listed in alphabetical order by organizationalname.In cases where several information resources are parts of a single organization,such as a university or Government agency, the individual unitsare entered alphabetically under the main entry; cross references have been introducedto aid in locating specific units. In the subject index, the full names of the informationresources are given below each pertinent subject term to allow for rapid scanning andidentification. Amore detailed explanation of theuse of the index is given in the explanatorynote on p. 277.

In a rapidly changing information network, no directorycan be definitive. Comments on any facet of this volume are solicited,ontributions for subsequent directories are welcomed, and users are encouraged to supplement the benefits drawn from these pages by directing requests for further guidance to the National Referral Center.It is hoped, however, that this first attempt will provide for increasedaware- ness of the many and varied information resources that are available and will help to establish direct contact between members of the scientific and technical community.

Index

The subject headings used in the indexare drawn directly from the descriptive text, and each resource has been entered under the several subjects reported in the description of thatresource in order to provide multiple avenues of approach. Some consolidation has, of course, beennecessary, and cross references have been introduced for two purposes: to guide the reader from a term as reported by a resource to the related heading under which that resource is listed, and to ,indicate specific subjects within a general category.Cross references have not been made from the specific to the general, since to doso would require assumptions which might not have validity for the user. The full names of the resources given under each subject heading will, it is hoped, aid thereader in preliminary selection of the organizations of interest to him. It should be noted that a few resources whose broad scope does not allow fora breakdown that would do justice to their varied interests are listed under the heading of Science and Technology.
