NOTE: This was extracted from PERIODIC.PDF which details Disk 34 of the AT Library. I found this information in Alex Weir's excellent collection called CD3WD_40, which is a superset of AT Library (I'm not sure of their affiliations, but found almost all of the AT Library in his collection.) The complete CD3WD collection can be DDL from Alex's website at http://www.cd3wd.com/CD3WD/index.htm. There is also a torrent link on this page. Periodicals Magazines, journals, and newsletters are important tools for documenting appropriate technology developments and discussing other issues related to community self-reliance. Some of these items are published using few sophisticated processes or equipment, and as such are interesting attempts to disseminate information regionally at low cost. Other periodicals that focus on topics within one of the chapter divisions can be found in relevant chapters. We have found that journals and periodicals come and go much faster than we can update this section. Therefore we are listing just two of the best periodicals that every program should have, the Appropriate Technology journal from ITDG and GATE from GTZ. It is no accident that these journals come from the two organizations with consistently outstanding book publishing programs that have regularly made important contributions to the literature on appropriate technology. Appropriate Technology, journal, 4 issues per year, from ITDG If you are working in a developing country and can afford only one journal, this is the one to get. This journal is dedicated to communication among people involved in developing countries; problems, ideas and solutions are shared. GATE (German Appropriate Technology Exchange), quarterly, four issues per year, from GTZ. This is the other outstanding journal on appropriate technology, covering both technical and social issues across a wide range of topics.
