Dear Colleagues,

We would like to announce that a new, comprehensive bibliography on the history of world's fairs, "International Exhibitions, Expositions Universelles and World's Fairs, 1851-1951: A Bibliography" is now available.

It is accessible on the internet at the "Theory of Architecture" web site of Brandenburgische Technische Universität (Cottbus, Germany) as part of the journal "Wolkenkuckucksheim:
Internationale Zeitschrift für Theorie und Wissenschaft der Architektur" at:

http://www.theo.tu-cottbus.de/Wolke/eng/Bibliography/ExpoBibliography.htm

It can also be viewed as a pdf-file from the web site of the Donald G. Larson Collection on International Expositions and Fairs, 1851- 1940, Sanoian Special Collections Library, California State University, Fresno, USA, at:

http://www.lib.csufresno.edu/SubjectResources/SpecialCollections/WorldFairs/Secondarybiblio.pdf

We have made every attempt to be inclusive yet selective. At present, the bibliography includes almost 1,200 items, with more to come as the list is updated and added to on an ongoing basis. Comments, suggestions and additions are welcome. Please send them to Alexander C.T. Geppert at geppert@iue.it or to Jean Coffey at jeanc@csufresno.edu.

Yours sincerely,

Alexander C.T. Geppert, Jean Coffey and Tammy Lau
