The Institute's Information Service provides all kinds of information on the nuclear energy and uranium industries and on many related topics. These include energy and electricity supply issues, political issues, and relevant environmental issues, such as global warming. The Service can, when necessary, call on the experience and expertise of other secretariat staff and of the Institute's world-wide membership.

The Information Service welcomes enquiries from any interested party, by letter, fax or email. Please include as much detail as you can with your enquiry - this helps us to provide the most appropriate response. Remember to include your name, postal address and telephone/fax numbers even if you send your enquiry by email. All we ask of you is that, before you contact us, you take a few minutes to see if the information you need is already on this site (you can use our search facility).
