Subject: [Wetlands Forum] Ramsar Handbooks available on CD-ROM

Greetings, Forum members. The second edition of the "Ramsar Toolkit", the Handbooks for the Wise Use of Wetlands, consists of 14 volumes containing all of the major guidance documents adopted by the Conference
of the Contracting Parties through COP8 in 2002,  combined with additional illustrative material such as background studies, case studies, photographs and tables. The compilation of the series, which is available in the three official languages of the Convention English,
French, and Spanish), was completed in September 2004, and the handbooks were posted on the Ramsar Web site for download in Adobe Acrobat PDF format, along with unpolished Word versions of their texts (http://ramsar.org/lib_handbooks_e.htm). Now the same PDF and Word texts of the handbooks are available free of charge on CD-ROM, all three languages (and including the Ramsar Manual) on one CD, and readers who wish to have a copy of their own should contact Montse Riera in the Secretariat, riera@ramsar.org.

Best regards, Dwight Peck, Ramsar.
