destroy old but still mostly useful things.

online list
of new titles FREE This is an
occasional listing of titles newly added to the JPGS
(JEPP) database. This should be helpful to librarians and
others seeking info on new publications. We will copy the style of the
old (discontinued newsletter) JGPS

will add some links to further info/sources. Eventually this may become
a paid subscription product but will remain FREE for some time. No
subscription needed; no registration.

JPGSlite

FREE access
JPGSlite is
the
free donation-supported and commission-supported version of JPGS data.
Lite is not a substitute for JDPA and JEPP. JPGSlite is both
broader and less comprehensive. Publications are dropped from
Lite if they can no longer be obtained from any source. JPGSlite can
be useful even for JEPP subscribers who are looking for a source from
which they can buy a book or other publication.

other interested people. These lists are used
to promote and announce JPGS products and services. It is intended that
these lists will send announcements that relate to JPGS and that the
receivers of email will be people who are interested in one or more of
the professional areas covered by JPGS. The best way to unsubscribe is
to quickly return the whole email we sent to you. Be sure to reply from
the same email address to which we sent the email and/or put the word
UNSUBSCRIBE in the Subject line or add a short memo in the Body area.
This will immediately result in dropping that email address from the

have.
