Viewing a Standard
Most standards are the property of the developing organization and thus are not freely available. Marquette Libraries subscribe to two collections and can purchase others individually upon request.
Other Ways to Get Standards
- National Center for Standards and Certification Information
A part of NIST, NCSCI provides contact information for obtaining standards from various bodies or agencies. - NSSN: A National Resource for Global Standards Not a direct source of full text, however NSSN has full bibliographic information on developing and approved national, international, foreign, and regional standards and regulatory documents, including information on where standards may be purchased
Full Text Standards
