Dear friends
This email announces the new directory of key information resources on
disability, inclusion and development, produced by the Source
International Information Support Centre and Handicap International. The
directory is available online at
http://www.asksource.info/res_library/disability.htm
<http://www.asksource.info/res_library/disability.htm>
The directory aids the sharing of high quality, appropriate and
up-to-date information that reflects developing country experience and
trans-national good practice. It is vital for practitioners, programme
managers, policy makers and other people involved in the disability
sector.
The directory presents details of over 300 information resources,
organised by topic and including clear abstracts and details of
distributors. Most entries include links to the full resource online.
For people with limited access to the Internet, the directory is

resources in a fully searchable and browseable interface. (To order, see
