Research has been part of the USDA Forest Service mission since the agency was established in 1905. Today, more than 400 Forest Service researchers work in a range of biological, physical, and social science fields to promote sustainable management of the Nation's diverse forests and rangelands, making it one of the world's largest conservation research organizations.

Treesearch is an online system for sharing free, full text publications by Research and Development scientists in the Forest Service. Included in Treesearch are research findings, reports and all peer-reviewed scholarly works authored by the agency's scientists (including those in FIA) and published in journals, conference proceedings, or books. Treesearch also includes scholarly works published in collaboration with other agencies, organizations and universities. The Treesearch website has been delivering publications since January 2004, starting with a collection of just 7,000 and passing 40,000 by its tenth anniversary, with thousands added each year.

Treesearch queries and displays Forest Service Research and Development publications. For those interested in publications specific to FIA, a tool has been developed to enable easier selection, query and display of publications by or related to FIA.
