DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information
Advancing Global Discovery

OSTI Mission:
To advance science and sustain technological creativity by making R&D
findings available and useful to DOE researchers and the American people
![Page 3: FLICC Meeting, November 29, 2007 Sharing Our Knowledge Dr. Walter L. Warnick Director DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information Advancing Global.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e835503460f94b8526c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Science Progresses as Science Progresses as Knowledge Is SharedKnowledge Is Shared
OSTI Corollary:
If the sharing of knowledge is accelerated, discovery is accelerated
Profound implications for all of us in the information business!
![Page 4: FLICC Meeting, November 29, 2007 Sharing Our Knowledge Dr. Walter L. Warnick Director DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information Advancing Global.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e835503460f94b8526c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
We can accelerate the sharing of knowledge …
But first we must dispel the misperception
that popular search engines are already doing the job
![Page 5: FLICC Meeting, November 29, 2007 Sharing Our Knowledge Dr. Walter L. Warnick Director DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information Advancing Global.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e835503460f94b8526c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Much of Science is Non-Googleable
We in the information business need to recognize this gap between availability and need,
and seize the opportunity to …
Provide science information consumers with better tools
In fact, the vast majority of science information is in databases within the deep Web – or the non-Googleable Web – where popular search engines cannot go
![Page 6: FLICC Meeting, November 29, 2007 Sharing Our Knowledge Dr. Walter L. Warnick Director DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information Advancing Global.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e835503460f94b8526c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Deep Web databases
Surface Web
Federated search drills down to the deep Web where scientific databases reside
We need systems, such as federated search, that probe the deep Web
Unlike the Google solution, federated search places no burden on the database owners
![Page 7: FLICC Meeting, November 29, 2007 Sharing Our Knowledge Dr. Walter L. Warnick Director DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information Advancing Global.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e835503460f94b8526c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
OSTI has recognized the need to bridge this gap; our emerging solution is “federated” search
50 million pages of federal science information
Key DOE databases
Our most recent federated search engine is WorldWideScience.org – the global science gateway
![Page 8: FLICC Meeting, November 29, 2007 Sharing Our Knowledge Dr. Walter L. Warnick Director DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information Advancing Global.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e835503460f94b8526c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
In January 2007, Dr. Raymond Orbach, Under Secretary for Science, and Lynne Brindley, Chief Executive of the British Library signed a Statement of Intent to partner in the development of a searchable global science gateway.
International partnership kicks off global science gateway

WorldWideScience.org was launched in June 2007 and now searches 24 portals from 17 countries of every inhabited continent
WorldWideScience.org allows the users to search multiple data sources around the globe from a single query search box
Enables access to prominent as well as smaller, less well-knownsources of highly valuable science
![Page 10: FLICC Meeting, November 29, 2007 Sharing Our Knowledge Dr. Walter L. Warnick Director DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information Advancing Global.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062519/56649e835503460f94b8526c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
A federation of the leading science portals sponsored by the governments of 17 countries
A quantity of science searched comparable to that
searchable via Google, with the bulk of the science being non-Googleable
A breakthrough in content enabled by break-through technology
What Is WorldWideScience.org?

The stage is set for the future
We are ready to scale up our efforts in metasearch, or federated search.
Simply put, we intend to make more science accessible to more people
than anyone has done before.
