The Bancroft Library established the History of Science and Technology Program in 1972 with a focus on documenting the history of science, engineering, mathematics, public health and related fields. In 1985 the Guide to Sources in Northern California for History of Science and Technology was published. Compiled by Robin E. Rider and Henry E. Lowood and published by the Office for History of Science and Technology at the University of California, Berkeley, this resource was heavily used by scholars and is the foundation of the History of Science & Technology Sources database. The database was envisioned to provide researchers with holdings information for collections related to the history of science and technology held across UC Berkeley Archives and Libraries.
