This is a list of sites that provide searchable access to citations and, in some cases, the full-text of engineering, physics and computer science technical reports. Please note that if a technical report is not available in full-text online, Waldo Library will be happy to order it for you via Interlibrary Loan.
To learn more about technical reports, visit the Colorado State University site "Writing Engineering Technical Reports".


ArXiv.OrgThis is an e-print archive of articles in mathematics, physics, and other sciences maintained by the Los Alamos Nuclear Laboratory

CiteSeer.ISTThis site, sponsored by the College of Information Sciences and Technology at Penn State, provides a searchable index to technical reports, conference papers, and journal articles in computer and information science.

Cornell University Library Technical Reports and PapersSite includes computer and information science reports, all freely downloadable in Adobe PDF format.


E-Print Network (DOE/OSTI)An e-print network search engine run by the Office of Scientific and Technical Information. This site allows you to search for pre-prints and some journal articles in the fields of biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, nuclear technology, mathematics and physics. Sites searched include numerous e-print servers (including arXiv), as well as institutional repositories.

NASA Technical Reports ServerAccording to the blurb on the site: “NTRS searches three major STI collections: NACA (1915-1958), NASA (1958-present), and NASA Image eXchange (NIX) (1900-present). NTRS provides access to citations (i.e., references) and online documents and imagery for the following kinds of information: conference papers, images, journal articles, photos, meeting papers, movies, patents, research reports, and technical videos.” If an item is not available in full-text, feel free to order it through Interlibrary Loan.


Networked Computer Science Technical Reference Library (NCSTRL)Collaborative project with NASA, Old Dominion U., U. Virginia, and Virginia Tech to archive computer science technical reports from CS departments and research laboratories.

STINET - Scientific and Technical Information Network (Defense Technical Information Center)Provides searchable access to citations and some full-text documents in federally funded defense, aerospace, and security technology research. Be prepared for some slow downloading times.

University of Washington: Computer Science & EngineeringNote that this site only contains reports up to 1996.  Most recent technical reports are on an FTP site (URL: ftp://ftp.cs.washington.edu/tr) 


Virtual Technical Reports Center: E-Prints, Preprints, & Technical Reports on the WebSponsored by the University of Maryland Libraries.
This is a mega-site, providing links to over a hundred different sites that provide either citations or full-text to technical reports, E-prints and pre-prints.
