The International Seismological Centre (ISC) is a non-governmental organization in the UK charged with the collection, analysis, and publication of standard earthquake information from all over the world. The centre prepares a global seismicity Bulletin that includes event locations and magnitudes and has recently created this new Web site to publish its information more broadly. The site contains information about the ISC, including contents and analyses from the Bulletin, as well as searches of recent issues of that periodical. Indeed, some data sets are now searchableon-line. In the future, the 1SC plans to post its entire 30-year Bulletin and 90-year Catalogue of major earthquakes on this site. More information about the centre is available from the ISC, Pipers Lane, Thatcham, Berkshire, RG19 4NS, UK. Tel: +44 (0) 1635 861022; Fax: +44 (0) 1635 872351; E-mail: seismo@isc.ac.uk
