The Information SST collective catalogue has been available for consultation on the Internet for more than 10 years now. It is one of the largest catalogues of documents relating to occupational health and safety.

ISST allows users to locate, among the collections of the CSST, the IRSST and joint sector-based associations (JSA), more than 150,000 books, standards, audiovisual documents, investigation reports, articles, etc. The catalogue is updated on a daily basis. The publications appearing in the catalogue are described using keywords and very often are summarized.

With ISST, users can consult on-line thousands of publications dealing with prevention, ergonomics, industrial hygiene, medicine, toxicology, etc., using a hyperlink that refers users to the full text when the publication is available on the Internet. Close to one-third of the publications acquired over the last ten years can be downloaded.

ISST simplifies research by using predefined search profiles created by our librarians. These profiles deal with subjects related to the strategic orientations of the CSST and the needs expressed by our clientele.

ISST provides information on the availability of a title and indicates from which centre of the SST documentary network it can be borrowed.

Are you unable to find a title? Have you consulted the catalogue by keyword but have not obtained a satisfactory answer? One of our librarians can certainly assist you! Feel free to call on their services on site, by telephone or by e-mail.
