GLOBE - The Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) have announced the release of their Glossary of Aquaculture, which is now available in hard copy.

The glossary has previously been published online, but now the FAO has decided to produce print and CD-ROM versions in order to reach a wider audience -- and particularly to make it available for those without fast Internet connection.

The Glossary contains approximately 2 500 terms and includes definitions, information sources, synonyms, related terms and images when available. Terms and definitions are available in five FAO official languages; English, French, Spanish, Arabic and Chinese.
