Abstract
    NASA's Global Change Master Directory (GCMD), a freely available online information system (http://gcmd.nasa.gov), provides access to a wide variety of global change and Earth science data and information. The GCMD offers search and retrieval of Earth science data and information from a variety of user interfaces including simple free-text searching, controlled keyword lists, and Java-based query tools. One of the successes of the GCMD has been to form collaborative partnerships with Federal and international agencies and organizations. Through these partnerships, individual agencies and organisations can meet their own metadata needs, yet ensure that data set holdings are known in the context of a multidisciplinary Earth science information catalog.
