The Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information (commonly CISTI) began as the library of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC), the leading agency for research and development in Canada, and became the National Science Library in 1957. Change to CISTI came in 1974 to reflect the wide scope of services provided and the increasing role in the development of electronic information products and services for the science and technology community.
