The
U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Publications Warehouse
"provides access to over 100,000 publications written by USGS
scientists over the century-plus history of the bureau" and is
an excellent place for researchers to visit when looking for both
current and historic environmental and natural resource related
information. With both a
Basic and
Advanced (click
the Advanced button) database search option, the USGS's collection has
select full text pdf versions of reports available online for free
dating back to the 1880s. Searchable by Publication Type, Title,
Author, Year, Journal, Contributing Office, and Report, researchers
should be aware that reports usually correspond to a particular
series. In addition a complete breakdown of the contents of the database is available
here. Of interest, the USGS also has a dedicated search of their Energy Resources available
here which also has select full text access to publications dating back to 1931.
