The Technical reports and other Yucca Mountain Site Characterization Office (YMSCO) documents series (1958-2000) consists primarily of technical reports on nuclear waste and other materials relating to the Yucca Mountain Site Characterization project. Reports in this series cover studies of geologic features of Yucca Mountain, technologies tested, and potential hazards of high-level nuclear waste storage. Materials were compiled from those received from the YMSCO as well as documents pulled from the existing James R. Dickinson Library technical reports collection, including current awareness abstracts and other energy related materials, particularly solar energy.

A colored postcard showing an artist's representation of the construction site of Hoover Dam, previously known as Boulder Dam, in Black Canyon. Constructed in the 1930s, Hoover Dam crosses the Colorado River on the state line between Arizona and Nevada. Also considered to be an engineering wonder and the world's largest dam during its time of construction, Hoover Dam provides much-needed irrigation and hydroelectric power to the Southwest region of the United States. Transcribed onto the top border of the image: "Black Canyon, Boulder Dam Site."
