Background NIST Librarians serve as a comprehensive institutional resource for information discovery, scientific publishing and research impact analysis, data visualization, data management, and more. They partner with NIST Scientists and Leaders to tackle the agency’s most challenging information queries by providing high quality reference services, custom, comprehensive, and timely research products, and research support. NIST Librarians are experts in information search and retrieval, synthesis, and interpretation. Frequently contributing to NIST research projects, the work of NIST Librarians supports laboratory decision-making, proposals, and research initiatives. NIST Librarians are professional researchers who are in the business of answering questions, compiling results and providing expert analyses in easy-to-use formats. Using their knowledge of scientific literature and publishing patterns, the NIST Librarians are research partners throughout the entire research life cycle. In September 2019, NIST acquired access to MarketsandMarkets business research database because the NIST librarians required industry and technology profiles, in-depth sector analyses, quantitative data, and key statistics to answer customer queries to support their respective funding proposals, research initiatives, and business decision-making activities. Before acquiring access to the database, NIST librarians had to collate market research information from less robust and disparate sources, such as abstracts and press releases. Locating this information was labor intensive, prolonging response times and leaving room for assumptions and omissions. Customers received a caveat regarding this information deficiency and a recommendation to purchase their own industry analyses, costing thousands of dollars for a single report. For that reason, the library identified an opportunity to enhance the quality of their research services and improve delivery time with a ready-to-implement solution that meets their customers’ needs with the purchase of MarketsandMarkets. The purpose of this requisition is to continue access to MarketsandMarkets, an online database containing research reports of various industry and technology sectors. Reports are authored by expert analysts who continuously monitor market sectors for attributes such as size, scope, impact, growth trends, outlook projections, forecasts, needs and gaps, economic and demographic forces and influences, players, and product segmentation. Interactive visuals and sector comparisons provide a complete picture of each industry’s landscape. Business research databases streamline access to high-quality market and economic information used by TPO and all of NIST: • As a jumping off point to understanding how NIST research/products have impacted the economy (to show return-on-investment for the R&D costs) • To identify companies/players/potential collaborators in specific industries, overviews of the landscape, gaps, forecasts, trends, opportunities and measurement needs for various technologies • To provide strong economic data that justify funding requests NIST-wide for everything from new research projects to major lab equipment upgrades and laboratory renovations B.
