WSH CD-ROM Water, Sanitation and Health Electronic Library, Second Edition
This second edition of WHO's water sanitation and health electronic library compiles information available from the World Health Organization on the theme. It includes many of the current publications and documents in HTML format, and some other resource materials such as posters in PDF format. The CD-ROM is key to increasing global access to information and has world-wide relevance. Information will be accessible particularly for developing countries. The CD-ROM includes different information material such as books and reports, training documents and teaching material, water-related disease fact sheets, collections of slides, and much more. The purpose of this compilation is to make information more readily accessible. It should be useful to scientists, policy-makers, practitioners, students and others - whether they belong to government, operational agencies, consultancies, academia, NGOs or other institutions. The design of the CD-ROM facilitates information recovery, and incorporates file formats and browsers which can be run virtually on any desktop or laptop computer. The information is primarily in English with a few documents also available in French. The WHO Water, Sanitation and Health Electronic Library CD-ROM is updated yearly.
