Designed to assist those who need information on the subject in making the best use possible of the various available books, journals, abstracting services, and databases. Begins with a concise survey of aquaculture and its literature. There follows a select annotated bibliography of major reference sources, among them: dictionaries, encyclopedias, handbooks, primary and review journals, and directories. Concludes with a directory of organizations worldwide that are actively involved in aquaculture, marine science, fisheries, and similar fields. This is particularly useful for the details it gives concerning these organizations' library facilities: subjects covered, size of the collection, whether interlibrary loans are offered, publications.
