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.
