Technical report usage has increased dramatically since the implementation of NOS. This study analyzes the effect of NOS on the national R&D technical report usage by examining the changes in the amount of usage and the number of participating organizations in NOS.

The results revealed that the number of participating organizations in NOS increased 191% from 23 in 2009 to 67 in 2012.
