Dear IRPA Delegate,

This is to alert you to two news items that have been placed on the IRPA Web Site home page.

1) The U.S. National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) has accepted IRPA as a Special Liaison Organization. With this status, designed for organizations outside the United States, IRPA will be invited to designate an individual to provide liaison with NCRP. This individual will receive copies of draft NCRP publications with an invitation to comment.

2) The IAEA Nuclear Information Database (INIS) is now available online. Access to over 3 million bibliographic records and almost 200, 000 full text documents is available at no charge and registration is not required. The INIS home page has now been bookmarked on the IRPA Web Site Internet Resource Links page.

I invite you to check the Web Site, and inform your colleagues of these additions.


With Best Regards,

D i c k Griffith
IRPA Publications Director
