ICRP publications
Established in 1977, Annals of the ICRP is the authoritative source of recommendations and guidance of the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP). Previously, ICRP issued its recommendations as individual books or as part of other publications. ICRP began numbering its publications in 1960, although ICRP’s 1959 recommendations are now referred to as ICRP Publication 1. Before this, ICRP recommendations are referred to by the year in which they were issued.
Recommendations from 1928 to 1937 were issued by the International X-Ray and Radium Protection Committee or Commission (IXRPC). No recommendations were issued from then until 1950, when the IXRPC was reconstituted as ICRP.
Thanks to the many supporters of the Free the Annals Initiative in 2018 as part of ICRP’s 90th Anniversary celebrations, all issues of Annals of the ICRP, and the ICRP and IXRPC reports issued before this, are free to access other than the current and two most recent volumes.
