You are SUPPOSED to be able to order them from your national standards body (looking at your address, I assume that you should contact ANSI). You can also order them from ISO directly (and you'll have lots of fun paying in a money they accept. I have found travellors cheques in swiss francs to be the best solution, even if I do have to pay a little bit more...) from my ISO catalogue: Central secretariat ISO 1, rue de Varembe' ( --> the last character is supposed to be: Case postale 56 "e with accent aigu" ) CH-1211 Geneva 20 Switzerland tel: +41 22 34 12 40 (the +41 means that the country code for CH fax: +41 22 33 34 30 is "41". See your telephone directory for more information about how to dial internat.) And from an old e-mail: you can (supposedly) contact ANSI [new york] at: 212 642 4900 Phone 212 398 0023 ?? fax ?? (I have found that they rarely answer their phone).

Neither ANSI nor ISO has yet to agree to any form of electronic distribution, certainly not a free exchange, as the sale of standards documents helps support the work of making them. Someone mentioned that ANSI doesn't answer their phone; I've only had problems with this when they were socked in with massive snowstorms. You could write to them at ANSI 1430 Broadway New York, NY 10018 and request the ISO catalog and ordering information.
