Excerpt from Electrocatalysis on Non-Metallic Surfaces: Proceedings of a Workshop Held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, Maryland, December 9-12, 1975 The dissemination of research results is almost as important as the scientific work that produced the results in the first place. As part of its role in making available to the scientific and engineering community fundamental data on the properties of materials, the Institute for Materials Research of the National Bureau of Standards from time to time holds symposia and workshops on various aspects of materials research. Such meetings provide opportunities for exchanges of ideas and results, and the proceedings, when published, often become benchmarks in the development of the field. Other institutions, inside or outside of the Federal Government, often join in various aspects of these meetings.
