Abstract
IN 1940 the Medical Research Council, the Ministry of Information and the editorial department of the British Medical Association decided to send abroad abstracts of important articles in British medical journals, and Dr. Howard Jones was appointed to do this work under the direction of the editor of the British Medical Journal. By the end of 1941 a British Medical Information Service had been formed, and the British Council, which had supported the work from its inception, took it over as a permanent part of its work. The British Medical Bulletin is published in English, Turkish, Portuguese and Spanish, and Dr. Howard Jones, who is now awhole-time officer of the British Council, has made it a valuable addition to medical literature.
