"The National Trade Data Bank is the U.S. Government's primary repository of trade related information. Fifteen major federal agencies are active in promoting U.S. exports. These agencies produce thousands of market reports, studies, how-to guides, statistics, international trade contact lists, and calendars of trade events each year. These documents are assembled and maintained in one location: the NTDB. This one-stop source is designed to assist U.S. firms in identifying business opportunities in foreign countries without the need to contact countless numbers of government organizations." This index has restricted in library use only access. Access is available from two computers in the HCL: one at the reference desk on 2nd floor and the other on one of the public workstations on 4th floor.
