ECD also contains more than 300,000 DOE technical reports that have not been digitized. These documents are available for individuals to "adopt" (sponsor digitization) for a nominal fee, thus making important research broadly available via the World Wide Web. To locate a technical report to adopt, select the Adopt-A-Doc? link on the ECD Home Page and you will be taken to the Search for a Document for Digitization page. Your search from this page will be limited to documents available for digitization - indicated by a "Y" (for "yes") in the Adopt-A-Doc field. For additional information, select the How to Adopt-A-Doc link.
