Hidden Treasure: Federal R&D Research Results in the Deep Web

Presented by Karen J. Spence www.osti.gov

GPO is at the center of a wide partnership of government agencies committed providing access to science and technology content to users. The Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) is at the center of this effort, and has a special relationship with GPO.

www.science.gov is a high-performance portal to government science and tech content that realizes the vision of metasearching for 30 deep web agency databases.

Please see the handout for this presentation, as it goes beyond my notes!

Features including full-text relevancy ranking, Boolean capability, fielded search and distributed alerts are planned for future versions of Science.gov.

Science.gov allows you to search the Deep web for results not available through search engines like Google.
