FOREWORD



The fortnightly Soviet Bibliography is an attempt to list on a current

basis the most significant published materials having to do with the Soviet

Union, its foreign policy, economic and social development, and its impact

upon the satellite countries and the world in general, It is compiled by

the Division of Library and Reference Services and is based primarily on

materials available in the central collection of the Department of State

but also includes publications in other libraries of the Washington area.

Only materials in the English language are included and the periodical

articles are selected from about 200 of the most pertinent and scholarly

journals currently published,

Emphasis must be placed on the fact that the bibliography lists only

a fraction of the pertinent materials in the Department's collection. Re-

quests for supplementary and additional materials are always welcome,

The Division of Library and Reference Services is prepared to supply

on loan, any of the items listed in this Bibliography. Applications may be

made to the Circulation Section, LR, Room 202, State Annex #1, or call

Republic 5600, extension 3363.
