The AIAA Technical Information Service in New York in conjunction with DIALOG Information Services, Inc. in Palo Alto, California provides online and CD-ROM computer access to AIAA's Aerospace Database. This database references scientific and technical literature and information including such sources as NASA documents, reports, and publications, AIAA books, journals papers, and conferences and other relevant items that record the results of aerospace research and development. Beginning with the year 1962 and continuing to the present, the database electronically combines two printed indexes: NASA's 'Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports' (STAR) and AIAA's 'International Aerospace Abstracts' (IAA). Items written by AIAA members and others can be quickly identified by title, subject descriptors for the 'NASA Thesaurus', keywords, conference, etc. using DIALOG commands and Boolean logic to combine sets of terms in the database. These items are then accessed in libraries, or photocopies can be ordered from the AIAA Quality Express Document delivery service. This session will include a demonstration of the database to show how it can be used in the process of aerospace research and development and technology transfer.
