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 de-

velopment, 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 including publications

in other libraries of the Washington area. Only materials in the

English language are included and the periodical articles are selected

from about 50 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 material in the Department's collec-

tion. Requests for supplementary and additional materials are always

welcome.

The Division of Library and Reference Services is prepared to

supply on loan, through its Circulation Section in accordance with

Departmental security regulations, any of the items listed in the

Bibliography. For this service authorized persons may apply to the

Circulation Section, LR, Room 202, State Annex #1, or call Republic

5600, extension 5565.
