Locate Government Research Publications and Studies
Search online databases for ongoing studies or completed research results

Use this list to quickly locate online databases that allow you to search ongoing or completed government research. These database resources allow you to quickly locate government publications, articles, and reports. For ongoing research, a point of contact is provided.

A database may be listed under more than one subject topic, and some databases cover the entire spectrum of government R&D, while others are focused within a specific topic.

The government spends billions of dollars on R&D each year and these databases are your means to locate the results of this effort.
