At NIST & rsquo;s request the National Research Council (NRC) carries out a biennial assessment of the seven MSL. The assessment focuses on each laboratory & rsquo;s technical quality and merit; and effectiveness. It also examines the relevance of the NIST programs and how well laboratory facilities, equipment, and personnel are able to fulfill the MSL mission. This report presents an overall assessment of the MSL followed by detailed assessments of each of the seven laboratories. 606 $aWeights and measures 615 0$aWeights and measures. 676 $a607 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bDivision on Engineering and Physical Sciences, 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783771303321 996 $aAn Assessment of the National Institute of Standards and Technology measurement and standards laboratories$93671478 997 $aUNINA
