Sources covered include over 3,000 periodicals, conference proceedings, technical reports, trade journal/newsletter items, patents, books, and press releases."
Inspec
Inspec, created by the IEE (Institution of Electrical Engineers), is the leading bibliographic database providing abstracts and indexing to the world's scientific and technical papers in physics, electrical engineering, electronics, communications, control engineering, computing, information technology, manufacturing, production and mechanical engineering. INSPEC also provides significant coverage in related disciplines such as materials science, oceanography, nuclear engineering, geophysics, biomedical engineering and many more. This database indexes ACM, IEEE, and SIAM publications, so it's a good one-stop search interface.
NTIS - National Technical Information Service
The National Technical Information Service is an agency of the Department of Commerce whose role is to distribute government-produced technical information to the public. NTIS operates in a revenue neutral manner, similar to that of the Post Office, and therefore charges for access to their documents. Some NTIS documents are also distributed in paper or microfiche format to the Galvin Library due to its status as a depository library. NTIS materials held by Galvin may be searched via the IIT Library Catalog.
