Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF) and Tech Library have been collaborating over the course of the FY19 period to establish and maintain the first and only digital collection in the world of Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) related historical documents, dating back to the CSP program inception here at Sandia in the 1970's thru to the present. The unclassified, unrestricted (UUR) collection, comprised of internally generated Sandia documents as well as a significant number of external reports will be searchable via both the Sandia website and OSTI, DOE's document repository. DOE is currently championing efforts to get the collection launched, where international partners, which include Australia and Germany, plan to forward related documents to be included in the CSP archive. Advancing this transformative project will make the CSP collection accessible to the Sandia and global communities.
