It also includes a federated searching option for one-stop searching of related science sites. Users in member countries and many developing countries have access privileges to ETDE's information. Some known user benefits include:
* Staying abreast of recent developments in various research areas (including some basic sciences)
* Avoiding duplication of research effort and learning from expected and unexpected results
* Jump-starting research at a point further along than anticipated
* Identifying which countries and people are involved in particular research areas
* Promoting international cooperation in energy research and development
* Understanding how countries deal with energy-related environmental and climate change issues
* Finding approaches to energy use, including policy and economic factors, alternative and renewable energy sources, and conservation aspects
* Finding a historical perspective on energy issues
In addition to the energy research and technology information from ETDE member countries, the database contains citations published worldwide regarding nuclear, coal, and global climate change information. This broader coverage comes as a result of cooperation with other international partners. The database also contains information collected by the U.S. Department of Energy since 1974.

Das 1970 gegründete Deutsche Musikarchiv Berlin ist dem Standort Leipzig als Abteilung zugeordnet und wird mit Fertigstellung des 4. Erweiterungsbaus nach Leipzig umziehen. Mit der Wiedervereinigung Deutschlands wurden diese Einrichtungen zu der Gesamtinstitution "Die Deutsche Bibliothek" vereinigt, die 2006 einen erweiterten gesetzlichen Auftrag und einen neuen Namen erhielt: Deutsche Nationalbibliothek.
Archivierung und Benutzung erfolgen an allen Standorten nach denselben Regeln; die Literaturbearbeitung geschieht strikt arbeitsteilig. Durch dieses Konzept werden an jedem Standort eine komplette Sammlung und ein optimaler Service angeboten.
