First, ask your librarian for help. If your local library doesn't have it, they may be able to get it on interlibrary loan. If you want to buy your own copy, first check with the organization that ran the conference. See part 3 of the AI FAQ for a list of many of the AI organizations that sponsor conferences. If they can't help you, contact the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI), and look up the proceedings in their Index to Scientific and Technical Proceedings (ISTP volumes). You can contact the ISI at Institute for Scientific Information, Inc. 3501 Market Street Philadelphia, PA 19104 Phone: 215-386-0100 Fax: 215-386-6362 Another source for proceedings author and subject indexes is: Directory of Published Proceedings.

The easiest and cheapest way to get a copy of a tech report, paper, or thesis is to send email to the author. Most researchers will be happy to drop a copy of the report to you in the mail, or give you a pointer to an online copy. In some cases they may direct you to a central technical report coordinator for their department (see [6-2]), and getting a copy may involve a nominal fee. Scientific DataLink publishes AIDA (AI Database of Abstracts), a CD-ROM of abstracts from AI technical reports on a subscription basis with a new CD every 6 months.
