• OSTI Works In Partnership with DOE Laboratories to Fulfill STI-related Contractor Requirements.
• DOE’s STI Program is Managed by OSTI– Provides accountability and historical record by creating
a central, authoritative collection of DOE STI for long-term use and access
– Fulfills statutory mandates– Enhances transparency of DOE research– Saves research dollars by reducing duplication and
enabling reuse of previous research• OSTI does this while also providing a host of
products to assist librarians and researchers
* Support * Assist * Partner *
• OSTI Responsibility Has Been Established In:– Atomic Energy Acts of 1946 and 1954– Energy Reorganization Act of 1974– Department of Energy Act of 1977– Energy Policy Act of 2005– America COMPETES Act of 2007
* Support * Assist * Partner * Equals Success
• OSTI and the Labs are partners in making scientific and technical information available.
