Library holdings in microfiche
The library owns a collection of over 200,000 DOE microfiche, filed under the class number E 1.28 and E 1.99. The E 1.99 collection is currently being refiled by technical report number (CONF, ORNL,etc.). Some of these reports are indexed in VIRGO, but most are not individually indexed in VIRGO.

EnergyFiles:Energy Science and Technology Virtual Library
"At this site you will find over 500 databases and Web sites containing information and resources pertaining to science and technology of interest to the Department of Energy, with an emphasis on the physical sciences."
NETL Database of Oil and Natural Gas Research
The National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) is part of DOE’s national laboratory system. The database portal provides access to content from dozens of CDs and DVDs related to oil and natural gas research that FE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory has published over the years. It also provides links to reports, data sets, and project summaries from ongoing research. The database includes more than 9,000 files and will be expanded in the future to include geographical information system capabilities that will allow visualization of data.
