With no fanfare, the Bulletin of the
EU has ceased publication.
The last issue covered July/August
2009.
Whilst never a favourite for an easy
read, the Bulletin was considered by many to be an essential tool
for researchers.
Combined with the downgrading of the
General Report into a glossy, poorly-referenced publication, the demise of the
Bulletin makes one worry for the future of serious EU information tools.
The Bulletin page now directs
visitors to the press pages of Europa, where many will struggle to find
information of a similar quality, as most press releases
don't even quote COMdoc numbers!
Progress, eh ...
