[Literature Type] Technical Reports [Access] Many disciplinary indexing services index technical reports. The National Technical Information Service (NTIS) database also indexes and summarizes unclassified US government sponsored research, development and engineering. NTIS is the means through which technical reports are made available for sale from government agencies. See a librarian for assistance in obtaining technical reports. [Description] 
Technical reports are prepared to describe the progress of research and development projects. This research is usually conducted by government agencies or supported by government grants or contracts. If the research continues over a period of years, the reports may be published in a series. Technical reports may appear in different reference formats, including proceedings, transactions, annual reports, or bibliographies.
