Information Services - The American Chemical Society (ACS) achieves its goal as an indispensable professional and information resource for members and other chemistry-related practitioners through two publishing divisions, Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), and ACS Publications. These divisions provide significant services to ACS members and the global scientific community with accurate, timely, and authoritative chemical and related scientific information. Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), a division of the American Chemical Society, is the world's authority for chemical information and solutions that advance research and discovery. Dedicated to the ACS vision of improving people's lives through the transforming power of chemistry, the CAS team of highly trained scientists finds, collects and organizes all publicly disclosed substance information, creating the world's most valuable collection of content that is vital to innovation worldwide. Scientific researchers and patent professionals around the world rely on a suite of research solutions from CAS that enable discovery and facilitate workflows. CAS is creating innovative solutions that improve efficiencies for scientists and patent searchers around the world. In 2014, CAS established the foundation and built the infrastructure to transform the organization from a publisher to a solutions provider. In addition to providing the largest and highest quality content, CAS is able to deliver innovative, new solutions for intellectual property and science professionals. CAS ended 2014 with a rich portfolio of new products ready for the market in early 2015. Consistent with past performance, CAS databases experienced robust growth, with more than 1.5 million patents, journal articles and other disclosed research sources added, for a new total of more than 40 million records available in the CAplus (SM) database. Updated daily, CAS added more than 1.4 million new single-step reactions to CASREACT, with more than 77 million single- and multi-step reactions, plus synthetic preparations now available to researchers. More than 50,000 Markush diagrams were also added to the MARPAT structure database last year from nearly 21,000 patents. Because of the work of the more than 1,000 scientists around the world who assemble, curate, and assure the quality of the CAS databases, researchers can efficiently and reliably explore the largest collection of disclosed chemical synthesis information from 1840 to the present. The CAS REGISTRY (SM) is the largest and most authoritative collection of chemical substance information available to researchers. In addition to covering substances from journals and patents, CAS REGISTRY includes substances from chemical catalogs, worldwide governmental regulatory agencies and reputable web resources. With more than 13 million new substances added in 2014, CAS REGISTRY contained a total of more than 91 million substances in total. CAS REGISTRY also provides access to more than 65 million sequences. In addition to the 1.3 million experimental spectra already available in the CAS REGISTRY, the collection was enhanced with nearly 100,000 new carbon, proton and heteroatom NMR spectra to provide even more access to highly valuable property data. The continual growth and updating of organic and inorganic substances in the CAS REGISTRY database is reported with the REGISTRY counter on the CAS web site home page (www.cas.org). Through an unparalleled commitment to quality, reliability, and innovation, ACS Publications serves the global scientific community as the leading publisher of 44 peer-reviewed research journals in the chemical and related sciences, and Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN), the leading news magazine of the chemical world. Through its journals, ACS delivers cost-effectively to customers highly valued essential information to sustain scholarship and discovery in the chemical sciences and related disciplines. Living up to their reputation as "most trusted, most cited, and most read", ACS Journals continued their preeminence in citations and impact factors while continuing to develop new and enhanced content and delivery options. More than 41,000 articles authored by research teams globally are selected annually for publication within the ACS's peer-reviewed journals, through a rigorous editorial process that has solidified the ACS's publishing portfolio as one of preeminence in terms of both subsequent literature citations and Impact Factor ranking metrics. In 2014, ACS Publications launched an ambitious 4-pillar open access publishing strategy to position ACS as an open access publisher. The program debuted on January 1,2014 with the selection of the first ACS Editors' Choice article. Each day, a noteworthy article from an ACS journal was made openly accessible; articles from every journal were featured during 2014, drawing more than 600,000 page views. With ACS Author Rewards, digital certificates were provided to the more than 40,000 ACS authors of record in 2014, as a stimulus program to facilitate the transition to Open Access. 2014 also saw a doubling in the number of authors opting to publish using expanded options available under the ACS AuthorChoice license. Chemical & Engineering News, the ACS's weekly news magazine, reports on news, events, and trends in the chemical enterprises - industry, government, and academe - in a timely, accurate, and balanced fashion.

Education and Membership - Teaching and learning chemistry in the context of our world is a hallmark of the resources, services, and products produced by ACS. Students and educators know that the ACS is synonymous with quality. ACS continues to be a leader in science education - to inspire students to seek knowledge and careers in science and prepare them for the realities of the global marketplace. In 2014, ACS reached out to thousands of elementary and secondary school students in new and innovative ways. ACS provided a new generation of undergraduate and graduate students with opportunities to learn skills that they will need to compete and succeed as they move forward with their careers. The American Association of Chemistry Teachers (AACT) launched in 2014. It is the first national, chemistry-specific association of its kind dedicated to K-12 teachers. The AACT website debuted with 120 high school, 18 middle school, and 13 elementary school resources in 15 categories; 22 pieces of original multimedia; hundreds of auxiliary files; and information on upcoming events. At the end of December, 2014, 1,570 individuals joined AACT, 89 percent of whom are K-12 teachers. One of ACS's most successful efforts, the ACS Scholars Program, continues to help underrepresented minority students achieve their dreams of degrees and careers in a broad range of chemical sciences. In all, nearly 2,679 African-American, Hispanic/Latino, and Native American students have participated in the program since 1995. Of those, nearly 1,500 have earned bachelor's degrees in a chemical science and 40 percent have entered the chemical science workforce, many with advanced degrees. More than 200 of these ACS Scholars have gone on to earn doctoral degrees in chemistry, chemical engineering, or a related discipline. Another premier program, Project SEED, offers high school students the rare opportunity to work in academic, government, or industrial research laboratories for an eight to ten week term. In 2014, 468 volunteer scientists and coordinators mentored 423 students in nearly 140 institutions. The Project SEED Scholarship Subcommittee awarded 28 Project SEED College Scholarships, totaling $140,000, to former SEED students for their freshman year in college. This was a landmark year for the ACS undergraduate programs. Student membership reached almost 20,000 at the end of 2014. The ACS Graduate and Postdoctoral Chemist, the ACS's e-magazine for graduate students and postdoctoral scholars, reached 21,000 subscribers. The ACS Committee on Education (SOCED) approved a pilot program of International Student Chapters, and six International Student Chapters, based in Egypt, Germany, India, Italy, Malaysia, and Singapore were chartered. The ACS High School Chemistry Club program, established in 2005 with 15 clubs, now has more than 535 clubs including 24 international clubs. A new kids' website, Adventures in Chemistry, was launched in May 2014. The website is designed to capture the interests and imagination of pre-K and elementary school children with videos, experiments and games. Another education program is the ACS Science Coaches. This program supports volunteer chemists who assist a teacher on an on-going basis throughout the school year. In the 2014 school year, 200 chemist - teacher partnerships in 43 states, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia were accepted into the program. The program also received a record 237 applications in 2014. ACS Membership and Scientific Advancement (M&SA) programs are administered with the vision that ACS will be the premier professional membership organization for all practitioners of chemistry. As of December 31, 2014, the ACS has more than 158,000 members. Membership programs are built around five fundamental objectives: - Advance the chemical sciences and technologies through the delivery of high quality programs that provide cutting-edge technical information to all practitioners of chemistry and chemical engineering; - Communicate the value of chemistry and chemical engineering to the public by providing excellent volunteer-based programs and activities to members, local sections, and technical divisions; - Support a diverse community of chemical professionals through value-based programs, services, and information that allow chemical practitioners to develop and manage their careers in a global environment; - Advance the frontiers of science in multidisciplinary, international context; ensure advances in scientific knowledge and education benefit the global scientific community; and to foster a lifelong connection among international chemical professionals to ACS; and - Advance the implementation of green chemistry and engineering principles into all aspects of the global chemistry enterprise. The 2014 ACS National Meetings in Dallas and San Francisco combined attracted more than 22,000 papers and 30,000 participants. ACS also held five regional meetings drawing nearly 3,000 papers and a combined attendance of nearly 5,000. At the National Meetings, the ACS app was released and it supported the ACS sustainability efforts and reduced the print-run of the Onsite Meeting programs by 30%. For its mobile app, ACS received recognition as the "BEST IN SHOW" by Convene magazine, a publication of the Professional Convention Management Association. ACS national meeting and expositions also received an award as the "Show with the Most Commendable Green Initiatives". M&SA continues to offer innovative solutions to better serve ACS members. In 2014, M&SA launched ACS Career Navigator to provide members and other chemistry-related professionals with a one-stop-shop of key resources to help them succeed in the global chemistry enterprise with all stages of their careers. ACS Career Navigator seamlessly combines the offering of ACS Career Services, Professional Education, Leadership Development and Market Intelligence into a single, unified experience for ACS members and potential members. At the National Meetings, two onsite national career fairs and two linked career fairs were held. Together, these fairs provided about 3,000 individuals the opportunity to speak to 89 employers about 237 possible jobs. In an effort to help local sections and student chapters host events and easily create local networking opportunities, the ACS introduced ACS Program-in-a-Box. Using this innovative approach, speakers are made available to ACS groups via YouTube and GoToMeeting and the sections and chapters arrange events around those virtual presentations. In 2014, more than 200 students chapters and local sections participated (including 11 international sites) and attracted more than 4,000 members or potential members. The ACS Office of International Activities serves as the focal point for the ACS as it reaches out to a global community and refines its efforts to be more welcoming to chemists with international interests. In 2014, the ACS staff organized the 2nd International Workshop on Sustainability and Water Quality in Delhi, India in cooperation with colleagues from the University of Delhi and a variety of governmental and private organization experts on water and related areas of focus. The ACS also renewed its Memorandum of Understanding for alliance and collaboration with the Federation of Asian Chemical Societies, and formulated a new alliance with the Canadian Society for Chemistry. The ACS Green Chemistry Institute serves as a nexus, or green chemistry "HUB," by connecting an international network of practitioners from around the world, including government, industrial, academic, non-governmental organizations, and private sectors. The ACS Green Chemistry Institute officially launched two initiatives - first, branding for the ACS GCI Logo and refreshing its website with updated, timely and helpful content; and second, the ACS GCI Hydraulic Fracturing Roundtable. This new roundtable will identify opportunities for the oil and gas industry to use green chemistry and engineering in hydraulic fracturing.

ACS Petroleum Research Fund - The Petroleum Research Fund was originally established as a trust by seven major oil companies in 1944. The American Chemical Society, to whom the assets of the fund were transferred in 2000, must use the income "for advanced scientific education and fundamental research in the 'petroleum field', which may include any field of pure science which in the judgment of the Transferee may afford a basis for subsequent research directly connected with the petroleum field". In 2014, the ACS PRF funded 192 grants, totaling more than $19.07 million. The grants included 75 New Directions grants; 74 Doctoral New Investigator grants; 21 Undergraduate Research grants; and 22 Undergraduate New Investigator grants. The following types of grants are among those funded by the ACS Petroleum Research Fund: - Research Grants for Fundamental Research in the Petroleum Field at PhD-Granting Institutions. Research grants to academic institutions for regularly appointed faculty scientists and engineers to assist advanced scientific education and fundamental research. - Research Grants for Fundamental Research in the Petroleum Field at the Undergraduate level. Research grants to academic institutions on behalf of faculty members in departments not offering a doctoral degree, to support their research with participation by undergraduates. - Research Grants for Fundamental Research in the Petroleum Field for New faculty - Starter grants to assist the research of young faculty members with a PhD degree who are within their first three years of their first academic appointment as regular faculty members of colleges and universities in the United States.

The ACS Board of Directors determines the salaries and incentive pay of the organization's Executive Director & CEO, top management officials, other officers, and key employees. The ACS Board of Directors is advised on the salaries and incentive payments for the Executive Director & CEO, officers, top management officials, and key employees by the ACS Committee on Executive Compensation. Members of this Committee include nonpaid ACS members - the ACS President-Elect, the ACS President, the ACS Past President, the Chair of the ACS Budget & Finance Committee, and two ACS members with "expertise in senior and executive staff compensation issues" who are appointed by the ACS Board Chair - as well as the Executive Director & CEO who serves ex officio (non-voting). The Chair of this Committee is appointed by the ACS Board Chair from among the Committee members. In addition, the Committee on Executive Compensation is advised on the salary and incentive payment for the Executive Director & CEO by a Subcommittee of the ACS Board's Executive Committee - the Committee to Review the Executive Director(CRED). Members of this Subcommittee include the ACS Board Chair, the ACS President-Elect, the ACS President, the ACS Immediate Past President (Presidential Succession from performance year) and the longest tenured Board member who is an elected member of the Board's Executive Committee (for performance year under consideration). The Chair of this Subcommittee is the ACS Board Chair. The total cash compensation for ACS's executive positions is regularly benchmarked against comparable executive positions using independently published compensation survey data and independent executive consultants. These positions have been benchmarked ten separate times by William M. Mercer, Inc. (1994 and 1997), KPMG Peat Marwick (1998), Quatt Associates (2000, 2002, 2010, and 2013), Aon Consulting (2004), and Towers Perrin HR Services (2006 and 2008). The salary increases and incentive payments for the Executive Director & CEO, officers, top management officials, and key employees in 2014 were based on the 2013 performance year and were reviewed by the Committee on Executive Compensation and the ACS Board. The Committee and Board voted on these increases and incentives which were documented in the minutes from the Committee and Board meetings. The salary increase and incentive payment for the Executive Director & CEO were also reviewed by the CRED Subcommittee. The written performance reviews and related documentation were provided to the Committee members and the ACS Board of Directors. Salary increases for 2014 for ACS executives were processed at the end of the first quarter 2015.
