The Department of Energy's Scientific and Technical
Information Program (STIP) is carried out at many levels
within the Department and by its contractor organiza-
tions. The Office of Scientific and Technical Information
(OSTI) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, provides direction
and leadership for STIP and serves as DOE's national
center for scientific and technical information manage-
ment and dissemination. Both DOE-originated informa-
tion and worldwide literature regarding advances in sub-
jects of interest to DOE researchers are collected,
processed, and disseminated through the Energy Data
Information System (EDIS) maintained by OSTI. The

major data bases in this system are available within the
United States through commercial on-line systems and
to those outside the United States through formal govern-
mental exchange agreements. The current-year records
for the major data bases plus a number of specialized
data bases are available to DOE offices and contractors
through OSTI's Integrated Technical Information System
(ITIS). To manage DOE's information resources effec-
tively, DOE's Scientific and Technical Information Pro-
gram is one of continual development and evaluation of
new information products, systems, and technologies.

CODEN: EAPAD

Energy Abstracts for Policy Analysis (EAPA), while embracing all phases of energy analysis and development, is limited primarily to nontechnological or quasitechnological articles or reports having significant reference value. This selectivity in scope and coverage of EAPA is effected to emphasize the following: programmatic efforts; policy, legislative, and regulatory aspects; social, economic, and environmental impacts; regional and sectoral analyses, institutional factors, etc. Note: the "hard" scientific and technical literature is abstracted for the most part in DOE Energy Research Abstracts (ERA) and is included in the DOE Energy Data Base.

Selection for EAPA is based strictly on content (substantive articles) and is made from Congressional committee prints; Federal agency and department reports; regional commission and state and local government reports; periodicals, including trade journals and newsweeklies; conference proceedings and/or conference papers;

books, including manuals, directories, encyclopedias, etc.; and documents from industrial firms, private institutes and foundations, educational institutions, societies, associations, etc.

EAPA is available to the public on a subscription basis from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402. The subscription rate for the 12 monthly issues plus the annual index is $70.00 for domestic subscribers and $87.50 for subscribers outside the North American continent. The annual index is also available separately to subscribers for $22.00 (domestic) or $27.50 (outside the North American continent). A single issue costs $6.00 (domestic) or $7.50 (outside the North American continent).
