Published in association with NRC Research Press, Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information, and the Royal Ontario Museum.

Measuring the Impact of Information on Development

The revised edition of The Canadian Style is an indispensable language guide for editors, copywriters, students, teachers, lawyers, journalists, secretaries and business people – in fact, anyone writing in the English language in Canada today. It provides concise, up-to-date answers to a host of questions on abbreviations, hyphenation, spelling, the use of capital letters, punctuation and frequently misused or confused words. It deals with letter, memo and report formats, notes, indexes and bibliographies, and geographical names. It also gives techniques for writing clearly and concisely, editing documents and avoiding stereotyping in communications. There is even an appendix on how to present French words in an English text.

This book is the official biography of George J. Klein, a design engineer who spent 40 years at the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) and was considered "the most productive inventor in Canada in the 20th Century". The book recounts Klein's family history and personal life.

Assault on Poverty: Basic Human Needs, Science, and Technology

Canadian library symbols are assigned by the National Library and provide a standardized key to the identification of Canadian libraries, information centres, archives, collections and information services, many of which participate or are listed in wide ranges of information activities such as data bases, bibliographies, union lists, local and regional networks and various other activities. This guide presents, within provincial or territorial groupings, an alphabetical listing of the symbols and the assigned names of the institutions, and vice versa. Contains explanatory notes as to the composition of the symbols.
