Frequently requested publications


General brochures:

The BIPM publishes a bilingual (French–English) brochure called Le Bureau international des poids et mesures/The International Bureau of Weights and Measures (2007), which gives an account of the activities of the BIPM and an outline of its organizational structure.

This is complemented by The Pavillon de Breteuil: A brief outline from 1672 to the present day (1991), and its French counterpart, Le Pavillon de Breteuil : Bref historique de 1672 à nos jours (1991, reprinted in 1997).


Joint publications: Guides in Metrology

A revised edition of the VIM (VIM3), prepared by JCGM-WG2, is now available on our website, and JCGM-WG1 is working on a series of documents to accompany the GUM. For more details, click here.
