Yesterday, I was looking at a few issues of the Health Development CD-ROMs, distributed free by TALC. If you work in a developing world country and do not already receive these, you should really contact TALC

) and request to be put on the list. TALC produces about one CD-ROM each year and each one is packed with useful resources: journal articles from BMJ, Lancet, and others; entire books; newsletters and so on.
You could access most of these directly from the Internet, but there are some advantages to the CD-ROMs.
- You do not need an Internet connection at all.
- You do not need to struggle with long download times if you do have a connection.
- The editors have already selected a set of resources that are quite relevant to developing world settings.
Among what I found on these recent CD-ROMs was Community Eye Health Journal. It's an excellent resource and available free on the Internet as well as on the TALC CDs. If you are involved in primary care, healthcare planning, general hospital, or eye care, you should check the site.
