The Federation of Animal Science Societies (FASS) is pleased to announce the completion of the first revised edition of the Guide for the Care and Use of Agricultural Animals in Agricultural Research and Teaching. The first edition of the guide was published in 1988 and was developed as a voluntary guide for agricultural researchers, instructors, and technicians. In the past 10 years, the guide has served as a primary reference on the care and use of major agricultural animal species in the United States in research and teaching that must be conducted in simulated or actual agricultural production settings. The first revised edition, published by FASS, has resulted from a complete and deliberate update of the original guide, although the overall purpose and format of the original work remain the same.
The cost of the 150-page reference is $10 (postage and handling included), and copies can be ordered through FASS at 1111 North Dunlap Avenue, Savoy, IL 61874, tel: (217) 356-3182, fax: (217) 398-4119, e-mail: fass@assochq.org
