Some societies or agencies produce their own indexes. It never hurts to try the organizations website for indexes (most often for recent publications only, but still useful.)

NASA
NASA Technical Reports Server is the online index to bibliographic citations for Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR file series), journal articles, and conference proceedings (Open Literature file series), and citations from the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) collection, NASA's predecessor organization. The citations represent a selected portion of the publicly available information available through the NASA RECON system. Reports will also be indexed by NTIS.

E-Mail and Web Access: any PC in the Library has some web access. However, the guest workstations (beige) do not allow commercial email sites. These are all the beige pcs on the 1st-4th floors. All the Access+ PCs (black) have full web access as well as MS Office software.
Current Awareness Services
The Libraries now has a service that is available to patrons directly through the online catalog called preferred searches. This function allows you to save searches and have them run on a weekly basis to display new material that meets the search criteria. Subscribers can receive an email notification when relevant materials have been added to the catalog.
The list of online databases relevant to subjects in science, technology and engineering is on our website: http://www.lib.washington.edu/engineering/guides/englibdb.html
The complete list of all databases available at the UW Libraries is here: http://www.lib.washington.edu/types/databases/
