4.1 An online bibliography of the geology of the Isle of ManCompiled by Eva Wilson IntroductionThe bibliography presented here was originally prepared for the Centre for Manx Studies and has been held on computer at the Centre since 1995. It has also been published in full as an article in the following book:
The database published here in Studeyrys Manninagh contains the keywords and comments fields that were not included in the printed version. The bibliography has not been updated since 2000 but will be updated whenever resources are available. The bibliography now holds 711 references. The bibliography was compiled as part of the background work for the Centre for Manx Studies' New History of the Isle of Man. It is also intended to serve as a research tool in its own right by bringing together the available literature in geology and related fields.
