Magazines, Newspapers, etc

[DMBParticipant @dmb]

There is a directory used by the printing industry which lists every publication going. If anyone is trying to ascertain whether there is a mag for their interest, suggest that you enquire. Try WHS as they are big, wholesale and retail. Failing all else try local library, maybe internet. Sorry I dont know name of it but Neil could possibly help. The Chemist trade has something similar, called Mimms which lists every drug available. Anyone job hunting and thinking of a change of direction or your offspring leaving school, not decided on a career, the job centres have a book listing every known job, brief description and approximate pay level. Its kept 'under the counter' for staff use but they're supposed to be assisting the job hunter. Just thought I'd mention these things since they may not be general knowledge.

Three interesting pointers.

Under the "etc" head I would like to mention that it is possible to consult the Oxford English Dictionary online via your library card (assuming that the library concerned has made the necessary arrangement).

BNF = British National Formulary, used to be on every Medic’s desk but it’s now on the internet and anybody can refer to it.
