- This index contains over 9 million references to the engineering literature from 1884 to date. The focus of coverage is on the journal articles but it also contains references to books, conference papers and other materials.
- This federated search tool from the Dept. of Energy provides references to journal articles, conference papers and other fulltext resources on energy topics from 1943 to date.
- This Dept. of Energy database contains references to DOE funded research from 1943 to date, many of which are available in full text at the site. This database indexes 2.4 million items. Although the ECD is part of the Science Accelerator federated search, the ECD interface also searches the fulltext of documents in the database, which Science Accelerator does not. Thus, searching in the ECD is useful when you need to be very comprehensive in your search or are having difficulty finding results.
- This Dept. of Energy database focuses on access to the fulltext of publicly available DOE reports. Most of the 266,000+ materials are from 1991 to date. There is significant overlap between the Energy Citations Database and the Information Bridge, both of which are included in the Science Accelerator federated search.
