Resources Help File

The USGS Publications Warehouse contains more than 70,000 USGS bibliographic citations, including citations to USGS numbered series published as early as 1880. The Warehouse also contains electronic version of many USGS Publications, including new publications, which are added regularly. Availability of content ranges from full text to bibliographic citation only. The database will eventually include citations to all USGS-authored products. Currently it primarily contains products published by the USGS.

Users are now able to search for recently published reports, including reports published during a particular month and year, which have been registered with the Publications Warehouse. The database does not include the articles published in scientific journals at this time.

The database can be used to search for and link to the full content of a publication. Availability, price, and purchase options are also provided for publications that are in print.

The database contains citations to a number of Biological Resources Discipline report citations, primarily historical research reports. These citations include reports released by the Fish and Wildlife Service as well as the National Biological Survey prior to the creation of the Biological Resources Division of the USGS.
