It is important that consistency and uniformity be achieved in these areas. This Guide contains the guidelines used in abstract writing and editing and in subject indexing and categorizing information for the Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) data bases and publications. The associated acquisition, subject categorization, and retrieval functions are also addressed.
