A proactive approach to documentation and information dissemination
has characterised the BOBP's work from the very first phase. A
visually appealing and professionally designed newsletter (Bay of
Bengal News), systematic preparation and production of technical
reports on all the aspects of BOBP work, a well- equipped library,
photo documentation, impactful audio-visuals, video films, posters
and comic books, CD-ROMs of the entire print output - together,
these constitute a valuable body of knowledge. The Information
service has powered the BOBP's success and longevity, and also
strengthened interest worldwide on small-scale fisherfolk
communities in the Bay of Bengal.
All the BOBP publications from 1979 to December 2000 are now available
in a set of CD-ROMS and also on “onefish” website (http://www.onefish.org/id/3232). Publications
of BOBP from January 2001 onwards shall also be on online shortly.
The Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries and its concise
version 'What is the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries?' have been translated into several vernaculars and online versions
are available on this website [Click
