HI Kathleen:
Here are some places that might help... Not sure if you will find
this information "current" and "freely available" on the internet.
The National Safety Council Injury Facts is one good source of injury
information:
http://www.nsc.org/lrs/statinfo/99ifacts.cfm
Also see the National Safety Council online resources here:
http://www.nsc.org/library.htm
Here are some other places that might provide some leads - Accidental
gun-death stats versus medical errors:
http://www.mtdaily.com/mentors/politics/messages/3531.html
See Firearms Facts, Statistics and Studies (note that this report is
somewhat dated):

One other suggestion would be to ask the Buslib folks - the Business
Librarians discussion list is a great resource for specific data
searches and a great resource!
