Publications

Rapidly approaching 80 as I am, I thought I’d have a go at assembling a personal bibliography. I’ve had lots of articles on librarianship and information science published in professional journals, and some management papers – corporate plans etc – published in my time with The Botanics, but I’m restricting this to literature – poetry and fiction.

I may at some point try to list the poems and stories I’ve had published in magazines and anthologies but first, these are the monographs.
