Abstract:

The National Transportation Library (NTL) was founded as an all-digital repository of US DOT research reports, technical publications and data products. NTL’s primary public offering is ROSA P, the Repository and Open Science Access Portal. In addition to functioning as the full-text archive for results of USDOT-funded research, ROSA P is also home to historic transportation collections. Legacy print materials having historic, technical, or national significance are migrated to digital formats. Historic collections include copies of United States Civil Aeronautics Board Aircraft Accident Reports dating from 1934 to 1965, documents gathered and digitized in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Urban Mass Transportation Act, Civil Aeronautics Manuals, and the papers of Turner, Fairbank and MacDonald. Collections in ROSA P are publicly available without restriction and are accessible by Google, Google Scholar, WorldCat, Bing, and Science.gov.
