Select Bibliography, July 1999

 

Foreword

 

This bibliography is a selection of research publications from National Acoustic Laboratories (NAL) together with a few more general reports that may be of interest. It excludes articles written primarily for the information of consumers and which have been published as separate brochures or have appeared in newsletter type publications of NAL or other organisations. For the most part, the bibliography also excludes technical reports resulting from consulting activities, papers in conference proceedings and published abstracts.

 

With only a few exceptions (noted), the listed publications are held in the library of Australian Hearing. Members of the public may request copies of publications through any public library. Professional associates may request copies directly from:

Copies of some theses and larger reports may be unavailable but it may be possible to examine these publications by arrangement with the librarian. Finally, NAL research publications may also be accessible through some other libraries as complete sets (up to 1998 and excluding theses) have been presented to the National Library and to selected universities that offer courses in audiology or acoustics.
