The Reading Room becomes available at the start of the meeting, and closes when the meeting proceedings are formally published in the JANNAF Digital Online Collection (JDOC).
The Reading Room contains only papers that are publicly releasable, DoD Distribution Statement C, or CUI/FEDCON. If you don't see a paper from this meeting in the Reading Room, it is likely either designated with a more restrictive distribution statement (Distribution B, D, or E), or presentation only.
Approximately 12 weeks after the meeting, all papers and presentations will be published to JDOC. Only the meta-data will be published for papers with a distribution statement of B, D, or E. Fully registered meeting attendees will recieve complimentary access to these files, and will be notified when they have been published.
