Featured Download: OECD Factbook App

With an iPhone and the OECD Factbook 2009 App, you can have 100 economic, social, and environmental indicators at your finger tips.

These are statistics for 30 OECD countries as well as available data for the Russian Federation, China, India, Indonesia, South Africa, and Brazil. Statistics are organized into twelve themes, including population and migration, macroeconomic trends, energy, science and technology, environment, education, public finance, and quality of life.

The OECD Factbook App is free: download it from iTunes App store or on the OECD website. For more information, try the JHU Libraries' subscription to SourceOECD, which includes online books, periodicals, statistical databases, and reports.
