Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report conveys the results of our review of the Department of Commerces National Technical Information Service (NTIS). As you know, NTIS is a permanent repository and principal disseminator of scientific, technical, engineering, and business-related information. NTIS acquires such research reports primarily from federal agencies and their contractors and grantees as well as from international sources. As requested, our objectives were to determine (1) NTIS various functions; (2) the quantity, age, and demand trends of reports in NTIS repository; (3) the extent that reports in NTIS repository are readily available from other public sources; and (4) whether federal agencies are sending their reports to NTIS for sale to the public, as required by law, and, if not, the reasons for this lack of compliance. To determine NTIS functions and the quantity, age, and demand trends for reports in its repository, we interviewed agency officials and analyzed various reports. To determine the extent that research reports in NTIS repository were readily available from other public sources, we randomly selected 600 reports from the repository and searched for them on World Wide Web sites at the issuing organization and the Government Printing Office (GPO). 1 We also searched at FirstGov.gov and at a private searchv.

Download or read book Public Sector Information in the Digital Age written by Georg Aichholzer and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2004-12-20 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely volume reviews key issues and developments in the controversial area of public sector information (PSI). It addresses the fundamental themes, challenges and conflicts surrounding the access to, and use of, PSI in the new digital era. Using detailed empirical analyses and case studies from across Europe and the USA, the authors focus on the crucial policy, economic, legal and social issues. The public sector is the biggest single producer and holder of information including administrative and government documents, regulatory texts, political data and public registers. The authors demonstrate that this huge store of information is a key resource for a broad range of stakeholders such as citizens, civic organisations, private businesses and public sector agencies. They argue that charging the marginal cost of dissemination, a policy favoured in the US, will lead to optimal economic growth in society and will far outweigh the immediate perceived benefits of aggressive cost recovery.
