This search, containing 126 references, was prepared to serve as a guide to the report literature on the design and construction of hot laboratories. These reports are listed alpha-numerically. Articles selected from scientific journals and which appear in the 1951 thru 1959 issues of Nuclear Science Abstracts (NSA) are included. These articles are listed under Published References according to NSA reference number, and therefore chronologically.

This volume is a revised and enlarged second edition of what has become known as "The Hot Laboratory Catalog -- First Edition."
