A Suggested Current Literature and Reference Library for Respiratory and Chest Physical Therapists

Abstract

Because of the lack of a source listing comprehensive literature for individual specialties, a thorough search was made of the available monographs and journals of value to both the respiratory therapist and the chest physical therapist. The items reviewed included three published lists of recommended books and journals, reference tools listing books currently in print, National Library of Medicine computerized literature searches of the data bases CATLINE and SERLINE, sources of forthcoming books, and an abstracting service that lists books currently being published. This list would be of value to the interested individual or library wishing to build a literature collection on respiratory and chest physical therapy.
