Summary
The USGS Publications Warehouse is a citation clearinghouse provides access to over 120,000 publications written by USGS scientists over the century-plus history of the bureau. Since June 2003, all USGS series publications published after that date are available digitally through the USGS web. Since 2009, all scholarly publications authored by USGS staff including those published outside the USGS (scholarly journals, university presses, etc.) are cataloged with links to original published sources. The USGS Publications Warehouse is managed and operated as part of the USGS Libraries Program. ScienceBase harvests all records nightly from the Publications Warehouse via a web service interface that provides original records in the Metadata Object Description Standard (MODS) XML format. These records are ingested into a ScienceBase collection in order to make them available to the ScienceBase community of users and provide alternate methods of access, including geospatial services that expose those publications that have been documented with a spatial context. This collection record provides those interface options along with links to the Publications Warehouse web site and search system, the primary mode of access to these resources.
