What is happening to the zero-title databases Energy Citations Database, SciTech Connect, and Department of Energy Information Bridge?

Three zero-title databases from the providers U.S. Department of Energy and Office of Scientific and Technical Information have merged to form a new zero-title database: OSTI.GOV (database code: OTOTI).

The databases Energy Citations Database (database code: BHF), SciTech Connect (database code: 3-1), and Department of Energy Information Bridge (database code: BFI) from the providers U.S. Department of Energy and Office of Scientific and Technical Information no longer exist. In order to maintain accurate and authoritative provider metadata (based on our Knowledgebase collection policy), the databases will be hidden in the Knowledgebase on May 23, 2018. Although existing database links to the retired databases will redirect to the new database, libraries that currently subscribe to these databases should subscribe to the new zero-title database: OSTI.GOV (database code: OTOTI). However if your library is not already subscribed, you will not be able to view this database in the Knowledgebase.
