Unclassified technical reports in the Research Library's report collection are again available, after a temporary hold on access. While most LANL reports and many other reports are available electronically, over 1.5 million reports in paper or microfiche are housed in the report collection. See the Library's Reports page and the revised How to obtain reports for more information.
Safe Use of Lasers standard available online
The Research Library has negotiated a license agreement for LANL site-wide access to the electronic version of ANSI Z136.1, Safe Use of Lasers. The document is available for Laboratory employees from a Library web page at http://rlcd.lanl.gov/ansi/z136.1/.
