With kind permission of the HMSO the ASE can publish on our web site some chapters on safety issues from the publication (left) SAFETY IN SCIENCE EDUCATION which is now out of print.

Some of the information ie chapters are in large chunks ie 40 A4 pages or more, so we have had to OCR and convert the pages to PDF files to keep the file sizes down, this can obscure page layout, and some of the spellings but hey its free!

In due course this will be converted to a web-based database that will be searchable, but this is the first step!
