ARCHIVES!!

The first five years of Chemical Health & Safety (the precursor to JCHAS) are now available at:

http://membership.acs.org/c/chas/jchas_archives/chas_titles.html

Access is FREE.  There are some real treasures-in-print here such as:

Richard Kelly's peroxide article - one of the finest reviews of peroxide safety available and still requested about a half-dozen times a year.

Eileen Segal's contact lens article.  Her diligent work on this topic helped pave the way to a NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin that address the use of contact lenses  with goggles.

CALL FOR PAPERS!

Do you have something that is working for you that everyone should know about?  How about a case study that you want to discuss?  I would like to encourage you to submit an article to JCHAS for review and publication.  The author's guide is available at:

All articles need to be submitted via EES and must be in Word or Wordperfect.  More information is on the EES site.

Enjoy your journal!
