Books for Researchers
Longer-form reading: handbooks and primers that go further than an article can, for the topics where a reader needs the whole subject rather than one question answered. This library is being filled rather than finished. Its structure and naming are published so you can see what is coming and tell us what is missing, and each item below says whether it is ready. Nothing is listed as a download until the file exists.
Each item names the standard it is built to and the date that standard was read.
The library
Planned scope of the book collection
The collection is published as a list of planned titles rather than as a completed collection, because advance notice of forthcoming titles is more useful to readers than a page that appears only on completion. Readers may request a title that would be useful now, and requested titles are prioritised.
How these are built
Attribution of each resource to a standard and date
A template or flow chart encodes a rule, and rules change. Each resource that depends on a reporting guideline, a funder policy or a publisher requirement states the edition on which it was based and the date on which that edition was consulted, so that readers can confirm whether it remains current before relying on it.

Categories of books
The same material is classified in two ways: by resource type and by subject.

Requests for priority titles
The order in which items are added reflects reader requests, and suggested items are prioritised accordingly.
