Information is probably the most important resource for successful development and application in modern technology. In the field of NDT, it is the task of NDT societies to supply their members with up-to-date, always and everywhere available information about standards, new (and old) publications and general business news. DGZfP as a non-profit technical-scientifical society has developed an electronic platform to provide their members with all publicly available information, including modern search functions and fast literature delivery. Main activities of the DGZfP are as follows: Information and communication on equipment, testing procedures, test results, NDT techniques standardization and other technical regulations, harmonization of technical regulations, development of guidelines, quality assurance, R&D programs, equipment technology (validation, adjustment, supervision) and professional ethics. The Society's main source of information is the DGZfP journal, which currently is published five times a year. Besides information around the society, its members' activities, products and personal news, the 'ZfP-Zeitung' covers technical information and papers on NDT and related topics. It also includes an updated calendar of forthcoming national and international NDT events. The subscription price for the journal is included in the DGZfP membership fee. Proceedings of most conferences and seminars are published or printed on CD ROM, with more than 50 titles to date. Together with the BAM and the Centre for Technical Information (FIZ), the DGZfP is co-editor and distributor of the 44-year-old NDT Literature Documentation Service. Approximately 1400 to 1600 abstracts of papers related to NDT are published annually in 12 issues. This is available as a printed journal or as a PC disk. A collection of 10 years literature documentation is collected on CD ROM. Literature searches in up to 200 databases will be performed for special information from case to case or on a regular basis. Finally, search for relevant literature titles in the combined database of Welding, Casting and NDT is made available on the DGZfP home page (www.dgzfp.de) free of charge.
