Abstract
Pecularities of information retrieval on nanotechnologies and nanomaterials (NTM) in scientific and technical
electronic information resources are considered. Strategies used for search and selection of publications on
NTM are discussed with the emphasis on specific features of both this interdisciplinary area and relevant databases
(DB) and information retrieval systems (IRSs): free search with relevant terms; search with rubrics, thesauri
and controlled therminology including those for substancies and materials; search with patent classifications.
Most important DB and IRS regarded to NTM are characterized.
