    Issue-Specific
    The National Safety Council
    A Visual Interpretation of the Table of Elements (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), UK)
    "The aims of this project are to produce images that explore and reflect upon the diversity of elements that comprise matter in as unique and innovative manner as possible and to realise the potential for a visually dynamic graphic form of the periodic table. . . . The text accompanying each element image has been provided by kind permission of Dr. John Emsley. This information was first published in The Periodic Table Compendium, compiled by the Royal Society of Chemistry."
    WebElements: Periodic Table of the Elements (Scholar Edition) (Dept. of Chemistry, The Univ. of Sheffield)
    "WebElementsTM aims to be a high quality source of information on the WWW relating to the periodic table. Coverage is such that professional scientists and students at school will all find something useful. Currently most information is about the elements themselves but the scope of WebElementsTM will include simple compounds as well in the future."
