A Guide to Yankee Permaculture Publications: 1983-1997

(second edition - 8/25/97)

Since 1983, Yankee Permaculture has published journals, newsletters, papers, and pamphlets on many aspects of permaculture. Our goal has been to fill the gaps in existing permaculture literature, to pull together and/or better express information otherwise not available in useful form, and to extend the development of permaculture as a concept and movement. Much of the material we have published has been in direct response to needs we perceived in our teaching of the Elfin Permaculture Design Course as well as permaculture workshops and lectures.

We believe that these writings of almost 15 years increase in usefulness as time goes on. Meanwhile, thousands of people new to permaculture do not learn about this useful information. Therefore, we have assembled a summary of these writings by topics. We have skipped items of diminished relevance because they are no longer timely. We hope that you find this list useful. Ordering information is located in the Yankee Permaculture Order Form and/or in our Special Order Catalog (Yankee Permaculture Paper #27.) Comments on the organization of the tables below are included at the end of this document.

We strive to make the information below complete and correct. If you find omissions or errors, please let us know. The number of pages indicated for an article or publication may change in some cases as we update information and/or convert documents from typescript to computer typesetting.

Explanation of Codes and Notations

PUBLICATIONS

TIPSY=The International Permaculture Seed (or Species) Yearbook. The following volume numbers correspond to the years indicated. TIPSY 1=1983; TIPSY 2=1984, TIPSY 3=1985, TIPSY 4=1986.
TIPS=The International Permaculture Solutions Journal. TIPS I, 1=TIPS, Volume I, Number 1, and so forth.
Robin=Robin Newsletter. Robin I, 1=Robin Newsletter, Volume I, Number 1, and so forth
YPC Paper refers to Yankee Permaculture Papers. YPC 1=Yankee Permaculture Paper #1, and so forth.
Special Order refers to papers listed in the Yankee Permaculture Special Order Catalog, Yankee Permaculture Paper #27. Special Order 1= Special Order Paper #1.

PDC Pamphlet refers to the Permaculture Design Course Pamphlet series. The Roman numeral following indicates the corresponding number of the pamphlet. PDC Pamphlet I=Permaculture Design Course Pamphlet #I, an so forth. All Permaculture Design Course Pamphlets are in the public domain and may be freely reprinted.

TITLE

Insofar as practical, we have listed the exact title of the publication.

We list only the first initial of the author so that we do not have to go to a smaller, harder-to-read typeface. If you recognize the author's full name, you'll probably recognize it in this form. If not, it doesn't matter.

In a few cases, where a number of authors are involved, we list only the first with "et al" indicating that there's a bunch more. Some materials have no author listed or are the product of such a collective effort so no author is listed.

PAGES

Where we are listing an article, as inside a journal or other publication, we indicate the page number(s) where the article can be found. Where we are listing the entire document, as with a Permaculture Paper, we list the total number of pages, exclusive of promotional material. Where articles have been published in more than one place, we usually list only the publication that is most complete and useful.

COMMENTS

The comments can add any kind of information. In some cases, we use the comment as a keyword, indicating that the publication cited also fits another category. For example, although we have listed "A Place of Abundance" under Permaculture: Philosophy and Basics, it also fits under Useful Plants" so we wrote "Useful Plants" in the comments box. It will be obvious to people familiar with permaculture that it is almost impossible to fit a good permaculture article into just one category because permaculture is wholistic.

Certain comments are regarded as particularly important. These are in bold type. Since the comments box is small, they any other comments we might have listed. The bold type comments have the following meanings:

Public domain means simply that the publication has been placed in the public domain for all to reprint as they see fit, without need for royalties or permission.

Species list indicates that this article has a species list. Generally, these are compact and particularly useful forms of providing information. Resource list indicates that the publication lists useful suppliers, organizations and/or publications.

Print/disk indicates that the publication is available in both conventional print form as well as on computer disk. (Send a SASE + $1.00 for a disk order form. You may also need to use Special Order Paper #27 if the disk format is not listed on the Yankee Permaculture Order Form.) Disk or Print alone indicates that publication is available in only the corresponding format. We do have a scanner, and can enter many documents on disk, however the cost will reflect that the process is time consuming and involves expensive equipment. Some versions available on disk can also be supplied via email. Others cannot. SPECIAL NOTE: Not included in this list are special order reprints from out of print government publications and similar public domain materials. Notable in these publications are extensive materials on food crops for the tropics. For a list of such publications, order Yankee Permaculture Paper 27, our Special Order Catalog. Also not included for the most part are book reviews, organization reviews, and letters to the editor.
