Technical Resources: SMT007 Magazine—February 2025
February 3, 2025 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Among their many virtues, an old-fashioned card catalog told you exactly where to find a particular item. Today’s technical resources, while vast and well-catalogued, might not be as easy to find. We don’t have an industry-wide central location for all our resources. Just like each library’s catalog was self-contained, so are today’s technical resources.
No one source has everything you need to know. Yet, you still need to search out individual sources to find potential information. For this issue of SMT007 Magazine, key industry organizations—all with knowledge sharing as a part of their mission—share their technical repositories. Where can you find information critical to your work? Odds are, right here.

Nolan's Notes: Find the Help You Need—Accessing Technical Resources
02/04/2025 | Nolan Johnson -- Column: Nolan's NotesSome close friends of mine have a card catalog in their family room—with the cards still in it. It’s just a novelty now, but it wasn’t that long ago that the card catalog was the end-all, be-all of research resources. As a college student, I remember something like two dozen or more of the very large card catalog cabinets in the Oregon State University Library. It’s not lost on me that my friend’s card catalog “liberated” from the university is a snapshot of that particular knowledge base at that particular moment in time. Today’s access to a library’s contents have changed dramatically.
