I debated whether this should go in the References section, but I reckon everyone should know about this. As of 2 June National Academies Press has made all current and future publications that have PDFs supplied available for free download to anyone. For instance, their chemistry section has a number of useful titles, such as Prudent Practices in the Laboratory: Handling and Disposal of Chemicals. And they have lots more than chemistry.

Glad to be of service.

Also, if anyone out there read the post and tried the, um, link ... erm ... before I edited it to point to the correct edition, my apologies. Try it again; it works now.
