The Science Information Infrastructure: An Integrated Network for Finding and Using Information about Our Physical World.

Warnick, Walter

Proceedings of the ASIST Annual Meeting, v38 p281-89 2001

Several federal science agencies have formed an alliance to work together and to make an interagency science portal, science.gov http://www.science.gov, a reality that will serve the needs of the research community and provide universal access to physical science information for citizens. While much progress has been made, challenges of resources and funding remain. (AEF)
