G3 Service Extended
The
ITS Library at UC Berkeley provides duplicate copies of research reports,
manuals and other publications available free of charge to public employees in
California involved in transportation. For a trial period of October 1 through
December 15, 2009, we are making this service – known as Going…Going…Gone (G3)
– available to public employees involved in transportation anywhere in the US.
To
use G3, direct users to the G3 website at http://www.techtransfer.berkeley.edu/g3/home.php.
Search or browse available titles, then make requests online. Topics include
pavements, work zones, traffic operations, bridges, traffic safety, public
transit, finance and administration, and more.
First
time users will need to register, but no password or other authorization is
needed to use the system. Users must provide contact information, including an
email address, which indicates that they work for a public agency. Users can
make request directly; the requests do not have to be routed through a library.
Eligibility
extends to public employees at the federal, state, tribal, regional and local
level. DOTs, MPOs and other agencies are all eligible. We also will honor
requests from any private company which is a member of a regional TKN.
There
are no charges to users. The National TKN Resource Sharing Project http://ntl.bts.gov/networking/TKN_ILL_Guidelines.html
is providing funding to cover mailing costs, while the ITS Library and
California LTAP are covering administrative costs.
Please
feel free to contact the ITS Library if you have any questions, 510-642-3604 or
