These are some tips provided by the PSE Engineering Librarian, Bob Heyer-Gray, on searching for papers in the mechanical and aerospace engineering fields at the UC Davis library system on December 11, 2009.<\/p>\n
If you are looking for new SAE papers try searching Google. Some companies post them randomly. Use -site:sae.org so you don’t search the SAE.org website.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
The full version of Adobe Acrobat will convert a .tif document with OCR’d test to a .pdf document with the selectable text in tact. This is good for microfiche scans.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
