Current Awareness Bibliographies
(CAB/ECAB/ECAB-DOCS)
The Product
The Current Awareness Bibliography Program
provides the latest information at your fingertips. After determining
your subject profile, you will receive a customized bibliography twice
a month of newly acquired accessions in the Technical Reports Bibliographic
Database in paper copy or electronically via email.
Current Awareness Bibliographies--or CAB--provide
abstracts to all unclassified, unlimited distribution, unclassified, limited
and classified citations according to user eligibility. Electronic Current
Awareness Bibliographies--or ECAB--contain abstracts only for unclassified/unlimited
citations. All unclassified, limited distribution and classified citations
appear without abstracts or identifiers.
The Database
The Technical
Reports Bibliographic Database is a collection of nearly 2 million
bibliographic records and abstracts of completed Department of Defense
(DoD) research efforts in print and nonprint formats, such as technical
reports, patent applications, conference papers, theses, software, data
files, databases, and videos.
