Standards
A full set of British Standards including European,
ISO and ISO/IEC standards adopted as British
Standards, is available through the Internet,
delivered as pdf downloads to the desktop.
If you need to look at a standard that is not BS
equivalent, from ITU or the IEEE, for example, the
Learning Centre can try to obtain these for you
All the Databases you can access are included on
