All you environmental health people in Cathal Brugha Street may be pleased to know that the library have now obtained a superb new 5-volume Encyclopedia of environmental health, published by Elsevier and with Dr Jerome O. Nriagu as editor-in-chief.
The encyclopedia contains articles ranging alphabetically from Air pollution to Zinc toxicity. Entries are extensively cross-referenced and each article is itself thoroughly referenced. It is also remarkably readable, and is therefore likely to be accessible right down the academic food chain to first-year undergraduates.
All interested persons are urged to treat themselves to a browse. It lives on the reference shelves at shelfmark 614.7

An excellent directory
There is a view these days that paper directories are out of date. That this is not so is proved by a new acquisition here in Cathal Brugha Street Library.
The new second edition of the World Directory of Business Information Sources, a 2-volume reference book, contains contact details for information on virtually every industry in every country on Earth.
This includes government bodies, media and publishing, industry organisations, educational and research institutions. It also has country by country listings for information sources on each sector of industry and on statistical sources for economic and market information.
A look at this directory is recommended for anyone who needs to get hold of commercial or economic information about the big bad world out there.
It is on our reference shelves at no.338.7025
