AFE will now contribute both existing and new content to this major online library of leading voices in science and technology. Scitopia.org quickly searches the entire electronic libraries of each participating organization, providing relevant results without the noise of other Internet search engines. More than three and a half million documents spanning 350 years of science, engineering and technology can be searched through the site.
"AFE’s affiliation with scitopia.org furthers our mission to advance the facilities engineering profession," said Laurence Gration, CEO.

At the same time, scitopia.org will help expand awareness of AFE and facilities engineering in the broader scientific community.”
