Dear Derek,
Please refer to the INASP-Health Directory 2003/2004 which is available free
online at http://www.inasp.info/pubs/healthdir/index.html
The Directory includes details of more than 240 international organizations
and programmes working to improve access to reliable information for health
professionals in developing and emerging countries. It includes a section on
distribution agencies: organizations that distribute medical books and
journals to developing nations abroad.
If anyone is aware of distribution agencies that are not listed in the
INASP-Health Directory, I would be grateful if you could let me know.
Many thanks,
Neil
