Nova also specializes in reprints of U.S. Government Publications. For example they published a “book” titled “Land Use, Transportation and Environmental Quality: Interactions and Smart Growth Strategies” last year (cost is $195.00). The table of contents lists a preface, 2 chapters, and an index. The two chapters are: Our Built and Natural Environments: A Technical Review of the Interactions Among Land Use, Transportation, and Environmental Quality (Second Edition) and Creating Equitable, Healthy, and Sustainable Communities: Strategies for Advancing Smart Growth, Environmental Justice, and Equitable Development. Both of these publications are available on the EPA web site (www.epa.gov/smartgrowth/built.htm and http://www.epa.gov/smartgrowth/equitable_development_report.htm). When I checked last week, GPO had not cataloged one of them, but it was cataloged after I submitted it through LostDocs. Institutions that select these EPA publications will most likely provide them electronically rather than in print. Thus, the electronic versions will be more useful and accessible than a book on the shelf.
