G Selected Readings

Almost all items in this list are held in the TUAN library, which is the world’s largest

collection of materials on urban agriculture. Over 3,000 accessions of this material have

recently been entered into a database, accessible through TUAN. Please note that where

an entire edited book or the special issue of a periodical is related to the subject of urban

agriculture, individual articles within those publications are not listed separately. Note

also that publications in languages other than English are not equally represented in this

list.

This list is not meant to be fully comprehensive of the growing literature on urban

agriculture. Additional titles can be located, among others, on the Internet at

www.idrc.ca/cfp, www.ruaf.org, and www.cityfarmer.org. Numerous reports are

increasingly published electronically. Here, we have purposely de-emphasized such

material, focusing instead on the most important as well as the more obscure printed

publications.

Collections of papers (particularly special issues and sections of journals) are

included at the end of this list.
