Report Series Collection
The Library's report series collection contains statistical series, censuses and other material containing morbidity and mortality statistics from different regions and countries, as well as annual reports from research institutes, ministries of health and some NGOs. It is not a collection of one-off reports on specific subjects - these are treated as books or pamphlets.
Electronic Report Series
Where electronic versions of report series are available these can be accessed via the Library Catalogue. A limited list of key reports can also be accessed via the list of E-report series.
Print Report Series
The print report series within the collection are split by geographical area (see below) and then by country, and are arranged within these divisions alphabetically by the issuing body. The report series collection is located in the Special Collections Room on the mezzanine level of the Library, through the door at the end of the Wellcome Gallery. Report series can be located through the Library Catalogue. There is also a findings list in the Special Collections Room which lists all titles held within the report series collection and their precise shelf location.
