OSTI ID:6799131
The purpose of this publication is twofold: (1) to support organizations or individuals who select informational materials for inclusion in the ETDE (Energy Technology Data Exchange) and (2) for use as an aid in database searching. Subject categories and corresponding codes are established to define the scope of, or degree of interest in, energy information to be selected by those who enter machine-readable bibliographic records into the Energy Data Base. For persons conducting online searching or creating selective dissemination of information (SDI) subsets, this publication facilitates the selection of energy topics. These scope notes and category definitions also apply to online energy databases identified as ENERGY on STN International (Federal Republic of Germany) and as DOE ENERGY offered by Dialog Information Services (USA).
