Abstract: The Nuclear Safety Information Center serves the nuclear community by collecting, storing, evaluating, and disseminating safety information relevant to the design and operation of nuclear facilities. In 1964, after about a year of operation, the information‐handling system was computerized in order to increase broadly the scope of the Center's services and enable efficient functioning in the future. Computer programs were developed for the preparation of a bibliography, complete with key‐words and personal author indexes, that is issued quarterly and for a program of selective dissemination of information (SDI) that is produced on 5 × 8 in. cards. These programs and other services of the Center are discussed.
