The Impact of the Implementation of an On-Line Literature Searching Program in a Research Laboratory Environment.

Abstract

The work described in this report covers two aspects: the general operations and nature of the Materials Documentation Center (MDC) of the Air Force Materials Laboratory (AFML) and the impact of introducing an on-line literature searching capability on the behavior of professional personnel within the Air Force Materials Laboratory. A brief description of the Materials Documentation Center is given followed by considerations leading to the decision to provide on-line literature searching services to personnel in the Air Force Materials Laboratory.
