BIBLIOGRAPHY ON INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE

This preliminary list of titles is here printed in the hope that it may be found immediately useful to the rapidly growing group of Americans intelligently interested in industrial hygiene. Additions will be made to this list during the year. Copies of all publications on the subject are therefore urgently solicited in order that from this beginning there may be prepared a comprehensive bibliography, conveniently arranged and classified and fully annotated, for the guidance of all who wish to make future work still more effective.
