====== Research and Education ====
2. The Population Research Center at NORC & The University of Chicago [pdf]
http://www.src.uchicago.edu/prc/
With its world-renowned departments of sociology and economics, the
University of Chicago has a number of research centers dedicated to looking
at various issues of social organization and demography. Founded in 1983,
the Population Research Center at NORC (National Opinion Research Center)
and the University of Chicago bring together researchers from a variety of
fields (including psychology, business, public policy, and economics, among
others) to research a number of compelling questions in this broad ranging
field. The website is easy to navigate and contains information on post- and
pre-doctoral fellowships, staff biographies, and a listing of current
research projects. There is a wealth of online data available on current
research projects, including work on Chinese health and family life and data
from the National Health and Social Life Survey. Equally valuable is the
online collection of discussion papers, dating back to 1983, and containing
titles such as Movin' on Up? Racial Inequality in Children's Neighborhood
Socioecnomic Status, and Marriage Patterns among Israel Palestinians. [KMG]
3. The University of Michigan Library Digital Archive: Brown v. Board of
Education
http://www.lib.umich.edu/exhibits/brownarchive/index.html
Anticipating the myriad of commemorative activities surrounding the landmark
Brown v. Board of Education decision of 1954, the University Library at the
University of Michigan began creating this helpful digital archive of
important materials related to the case. Here visitors can peruse a nice
selection of transcripts (such as Plessy v. Ferguson, and school
desegregation cases around Ann Arbor), and garner statistics on the school
desegregation question in Michigan. Persons looking for further reading
material will appreciate the extended bibliography, which also includes a
list of related viewing materials, such as documentaries and oral history
sessions. The section on Ann Arbor school segregation contains several
important documents, such as the complete text of a book by Mary Jo Frank on
the desegregation of Ann Arbor Public Schools from 1954 to 1976 and a report
on the progress of this process from 1985. Overall, the site offers a good
overview of a very emotional issue, along with providing some nice insights
into the local processes that took place within the public schools of Ann
Arbor. [KMG]
4. Arizona State University: Mars Global Surveyor Thermal Emission
Spectrometer
http://tes.asu.edu/
The thermal emission spectrometer (TES) is a scientific instrument created
at Arizona State University to provide detailed looks at the composition of
Mars. The website features ASU's spectral library of Earth's minerals and
rocks which can be used for comparison with those obtained from Mars and for
interpretation of remote sensing data of Earth. Researchers can learn about
the many projects involving TES such as the search for carbonates and other
salts on Mars and the study of Martian meteorites. Students can find general
educational information on emissivity and thermal infrared energy. [RME]
This site is also reviewed in the February 6, 2004 _NSDL Physical Sciences
Report_.
5. EUR-Lex: The Portal to European Union Law [pdf]
http://europa.eu.int/eur-lex/en/index.html
Given the enormous complexity of bringing together 12 of continental
Europe's countries to form the European Union, it is not surprising that
there is a vast body of legal material related to this process. As this is
the case, the EUR-Lex website is in fact the "single entry point to the
complete collections of EU legal texts in all the official languages." The
homepage for the site contains several helpful thematic collections of
documents (in a variety of file formats for convenience), such as case-law,
parliamentary questions, treaties, and several other categories. Of course,
the novice user will want to take a look through the About EU Law section
which offers a broad outline of the legal process, a glossary, and an
alphabetized section that will answer many questions. To say this site will
be of interest to legal scholars and students of the EU legal process would
be a vast understatement. [KMG]
6. Online Resources for Cuban and Cuban-American Studies
http://digital.library.miami.edu/chcdigital/index.html
With funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (and from the
Digital Library Initiatives project at the University of Miami), this site
is an ongoing project designed to provide online access to research
materials held by the Cuban Heritage Collection (CHC). Begun in 1999, the
project has currently preserved over 3500 items and created almost 14000
digital images. While not all of these materials are currently available,
the project has posted a number of very helpful library bibliographies and
finding guides to their own internal collection. Some of these
bibliographies include those on moderate Cuban politics from 1952 to 1965
and Afro-Cuban diasporan religions. Of additional interest is the Cuban
Memories section, which includes brief descriptions of certain subjects of
interest, such as the American colonies in Cuba at the turn of the 19th
century. [KMG]
7. Oregon State University Mycological Collections: Type and General
Collections databases
http://ocid.nacse.org/research/herbarium/myco/index.html
This Mycological Collections database was developed by a team of Oregon
State University Professors and researchers to increase accessibility to the
OSU Mycological Collection of approximately 60,000 lichenized and
nonlichenized fungi. This Collection "is recognized as a global central
repository for vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae and contains the world's
most complete collection of hypogeous fungi. The OSU Mycological Collection
is an active research and public service collection that is used by
mycologists, lichenologists, plant pathologists, and forest ecologists
associated with universities and state and federal agencies." As of 1996,
the database contained approximately 6,000 specimens which included over
1,000 type specimens. The eventual goal is to enter all 60,000 specimens
into the database, which presently "can be searched by organismal name,
location, habitat or collector and provides complete label information for
all type specimens in the OSU Mycological Collection." [NL] This site is
also reviewed in the February 6, 2004 _NSDL Life Sciences Report_.
8. Luminary Lectures@Your Library (Library of Congress) [RealOnePlayer]
http://www.loc.gov/rr/program/lectures/luminaries.html
Designed as part of a national public education initiative (sponsored by the
American Library Association) the Library of Congress is the host for this
fine series of lectures by a wide variety of persons working in the fields
of information sciences, technology management, and librarianship. The
lectures themselves take place in Washington, DC, but for those who can't
make it in person to these events, all of the talks are available on this
website. Most of the talks last approximately an hour, and recent talks have
dealt with the nature and role of standards in the 21st century library,
moral panics over copyright and free speech, and digital rights management.
The site also lists upcoming talks, which feature such compelling titles as
Stewardship in the Digital Age: Roles and Issues for Libraries for
Preserving our Cultural Heritage (to take place on February 23, 2004) and a
rather large panel discussion titled Serving the Needs of the Profession and
the Academy, which will happen on March 16, 2004. [KMG]
9. National Campus Compact
http://www.compact.org
Founded in 1985 by the presidents of Brown, Georgetown and Stanford
universities, the Campus Compact organization was designed to combat the
popular image of college students as being wholly self-absorbed and
uninterested in the broad range of social concerns outside the walls of
their respective colleges and universities. Today, the organization remains
committed to helping a wide variety of institutions create supportive
academic environments for community service and to forming partnerships with
a host of institutions, including those in the worlds of business and
social-service providers. As might be expected, there is a wide range of
free publications available on the site, including materials on starting
campus-community partnerships, information on relevant legislation and
policy, and materials on incorporating service-learning projects into the
college-level curriculum. Of course, visitors will want to take a look at
the current edition (and the archived issues) of their two fine in-house
publications, the Campus Compact Reader (which highlights the best writing
on civic education and service-learning from around the US), and the Compact
Current, which is the organization's quarterly newsletter for organizations
and institutions involved in public and community service. [KMG]
====== General Interest ====
10. BBC: Antiques [RealOne Player]
http://www.bbc.co.uk/antiques/
Whether it be a well-worn teddy bear or a Restoration-era piece of
furniture, antiques fascinate many Americans, and the same might be said of
those across the pond in Britain. The BBC has created this delightful
website to complement several of its popular television programs on
antiques, but this site requires no knowledge of the programs to be a great
boon to the neophyte antiquarian. Those persons seeking to incorporate some
period pieces into the design of their home or apartment should start with
the Vintage Chic section which features a brief overview of do's and don'ts,
and also leads into the well-honed guide to period styles. Here users will
be treated to thumbnail profiles of Art Deco, Art Nouveau, Shaker, and
thirteen other styles. Of course, for those looking for the next big thing
in the field of antiques, the section of collecting plastic items, which
includes a brief overview of the field, and a few sample valuations of
pieces worth keeping an eye out for. The site is rounded out by a fine
selection of video clips from some of the BBC's programs (such as the
legendary Antiques Roadshow), and a buying and selling guide that provides a
roadmap highlighting the foibles of bidding at auctions and browsing
advertisements for those willing to enter the chaotic world of collecting
antiques. [KMG]
11. Visual Culture and Public Health Posters
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/visualculture/vchome.html
The National Library of Medicine has the world's largest collection of
poster art dealing with questions of health in the United States, so it
would stand to reason that it would be able to sponsor a fine online
collection of the various ways in which visual culture has been used to
inform the general public about a number of health concerns ranging from
lead poisoning to tuberculosis. Visitors to the site will want to begin by
reading the introduction to the exhibit which offers a brief explication of
what precisely constitutes visual culture, along with providing a few
preliminary examples of early attempts to educate the public about different
public health issues through broadsheets, leaflets, and posters before the
20th century. After that, visitors will want to peruse each section
individually, as they all contain a selection of posters that have been
thematically designed to convey important messages about each different
public health issue in a way that commands the attention of the viewer and
is provocative. [KMG]
12. Positive Lives [Macromedia Flash Reader]
http://www.positivelives.org
The Positive Lives project is "a unique international project that
photographs and documents the social and emotional impact of the global
HIV/AIDS epidemic, illuminating positive human responses to this world
crisis." Sponsored by the Levi Strauss Foundation and the Terrence Higgins
Trust, the project has sponsored photographers from across the world to
photograph various persons living with HIV/AIDS in a host of very different
settings. While the project has sponsored a number of various photographic
exhibits, this online collection represents a small portion of the work thus
far. Using an interactive map of the world, users can click on different
geographic areas to view photographic exhibits documenting the lived
experience of this condition. In South Africa, visitors can learn about the
work and the residents of Nazareth House, which is a children's home in Cape
Town taking care of abandoned children with HIV or AIDS. In Edinburgh,
visitors are taken through the lives of young drug abusers at the Muirhouse
Estate who are also living with either HIV or AIDS. In the words of
photographer John Sturrock, "In Muirhouse I witnessed the emotional struggle
of people enduring a tragedy..." However, hope is present in these
photographic essays as well, as they represent a broad range of emotions.
[KMG]
13. Expo 67 [Macromedia Flash Reader]
http://www.archives.ca/05/0533/053302_e.html
Two decades before Vancouver was the scene for the much-vaunted Expo '86,
Montreal was the home for Expo '67 -- the World's Fair that featured a good
deal of late-period Space Age architecture, hundreds of performers, and of
course, celebrated 100 years of Canadian independence. To begin, the site is
divided into seven primary sections, each taking on one particular theme,
such as the pre-history of the fair, the various pavilions, special guests,
and so on. The history section should not be missed, as it details the
complex wrangling and power-brokering involved with selecting the site for
such an elaborate undertaking, and is buoyed with a nice selection of
primary documents, such as personal correspondence, complete with details
about the provenance of each document. The pavilions section gives a brief
overview of the 62 participating nations and their respective buildings, and
allows visitors to learn more about a number of these festive structures,
along with offering some insights into the thematic structures that held
such grandiose exhibits as the Man The Producer display. A must-see on the
site is the virtual visit, where users of the site can adopt a bird's eye
perspective on the fair grounds, flying over a three-dimensional rendering
of the fairgrounds, clicking on buildings of interest along the way. No
World's Fair would be complete without a smattering of fun souvenirs, and
visitors will want to drop a virtual postcard of the fair to friends and
family, or download one of the three screen savers featuring the Expo 67
logo. [KMG]
14. Middle East Research and Information Project
http://www.merip.org
Established 32 years ago, the Middle East Research and Information Project
(MERIP) is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based in Washington,
DC. The Project has been quite successful over the past few decades due to
its commitment to providing a broad range of perspectives on the Middle East
not generally found in some of the mainstream media and press coverage.
While the organization's primary publication, the Middle East Report, is not
available for free on the site (although some of its editorial pieces are),
visitors will want to take a close look at the Middle East Report Online,
which is available here. Recent features within the online report deal with
the future of Middle East studies in American universities, ethnic unrest in
Iraq, and the long-standing dispute over Western Sahara. For visitors
interested in a particular subject, there is a subject index of articles,
and a feature that allows interested parties to sign up to receive the
online reports via email. [KMG]
15. Wisconsin Center for Education Research [pdf]
http://www.wcer.wisc.edu/
Established in 1964, the Wisconsin Center for Education Research (WCER) at
the University of Wisconsin, is one of the oldest and largest university-
based education research and development centers. With annual funding
exceeding $25 million from a variety of sources (such as the National
Science Foundation), WCER employs close to 350 faculty, staff, and graduate
students working at one of the many long-term projects and centers. Along
with taking a look at the Center's staff profiles and long-term research and
evaluation projects, some of the Center's many websites are worth a look.
Many of them contain helpful working papers and additional data, such as the
Diversity in Mathematics Educations site or the equally helpful Research
Institute on Secondary Education Reform. If this wealth of material weren't
enough to pique the interest of the web-browsing public, visitors can also
sign up to receive WCER Today, the electronic newsletter which provides
information about new research reports, working papers, and feature stories
featured on their site. [KMG]
16. Jean-Antoine Houdon: Sculptor of the Enlightenment
http://www.getty.edu/art/exhibitions/houdon/
Organized in the US by the J. Paul Getty Museum and the National Gallery of
Art, this exhibition brought together for the first time over 70 portrait
sculptures by Jean-Antoine Houdon, probably the greatest portrait sculptor
of the 18th century. The Web version of the exhibition presents two
sculptures that can be rotated and viewed in the round (portrait of Marie-
Sébastien-Charles-François Fontaine de Biré, treasurer general under Louis
XVI and Le Baiser donné, or The Kiss Given -- privately owned and loaned for
the exhibition). The link to Houdon's Sitters and Subjects reveals images of
Houdon's portraits of prominent Americans such as Robert Fulton (inventor of
the steamboat) and Benjamin Franklin, as well French Emperor Napoléon
Bonaparte and philosopher Jean-Jacque Rousseu. Also worth a look is the
interactive version of Louis-Leopold Boilly's 1803-04 painting _Houdon in
His Studio_ where clicking images surrounding the painting locates each
image in the artist's studio. This area of the site also reveals intersting
information such as the fact that the 1789 portrait of Thomas Jefferson (now
owned by the Museum of Fine Arts Boston) was selected in 1938 for the nickel
and is still in circulation today.

17. CoursePro 0.7.0 [Windows Operating System]
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/dmeehl/CoursePro/index.htm
No doubt there are students (and teachers) who will find Course Pro 0.7.0
quite a helpful application to have around. The application allows users to
keep track of courses, course data, assignments and grades. Within each of
these areas, users can define assignment types, assign weights to each
assignment, create new assignments, and add indicators to keep abreast of
when various assignments are due. The website for the program also features
some nice screenshots, a help forum, and contact information. This version
of Course Pro 0.7.0 is compatible with all systems running Windows 95 and
above, and for the Palm OS as well. [KMG]
18. iCal 1.5.2
http://www.apple.com/ical/download/
The latest version of this popular (and free) program has several new
features that are worthy of consideration and mention. This new release
includes To Do alarm sounds and notes, additional keyboard shortcuts, the
ability to publish or subscribe to calendars on servers located behind a
firewall, improved alarms, and support for events in multiple time zones. As
with previous versions, iCal still includes simple search functions for
locating events and tasks within the customized calendars and the ability to
have notifications sent by email, telephone, or pager. iCal 1.5.2 is
compatible with all operating systems running Mac OS X 10.2.3. [KMG]

Consumption of Alcohol -- Australia 1961-2000
http://www.aic.gov.au/research/drugs/stats/consumption/alcohol-std.html
Leadership To Keep Children Alcohol Free [pdf]
http://www.alcoholfreechildren.org/en/index.htm
Australians have a great passion for their biscuits, and generally the
release of a new type of biscuit is quite welcome. There are, of course,
exceptions to this general proviso, particularly when the new biscuit
contains a trace of alcohol -- albeit a very miniscule trace. The biscuits
in question were released this week by a beloved Australian biscuit
manufacturer, Arnott's (owned by the Campbell Soup company), and contain
biscuits laced with a popular coffee liquor. The response to this new
product was immediate, as a spokesman from the Australian Drug Foundation
described the new flavours as "appalling," and commented "Can we now look
forward to alcohol-flavoured corn flakes?" In response, Arnott's spokeswoman
Toni Callaghan noted that individuals would have to eat their body weight in
both varieties every hour to reach a blood-alcohol content of 0.05 per cent.
As far as their consumption by children, she remarked that "In no way is any
of our marketing geared towards children. The issue of whether children eat
them lies ultimately with parents." In light of the public consternation
over the issue, the Parliamentary health secretary Trish Worth asked the
Department of Health to check national guidelines for the promotion and
placement of alcoholic products. While the biscuit controversy will continue
to develop over the coming weeks, the biscuits have not been released all
across Australia as of yet, although reports from Melbourne indicate they
have been moving off the supermarket shelves quite quickly. [KMG]
The first link will take visitors to a news story from the Herald Sun which
talks about the release of these controversial biscuits. The second story is
a piece from the Courier-Mail that talks about the call for a review of the
promotion and placement of alcoholic products, largely as a result of the
consternation about these biscuits. The third link is yet another news piece
which documents the unfolding debates about the biscuits, as it announces
that one MP in New Zealand, Sue Kedgley, argues that Arnott's should not be
allowed to release these biscuits throughout New Zealand (It plans to do so
beginning March 1). The fourth link, offered by a New Zealand food website,
contains some reactions to Kedgley's proposal, including the observation
that "Sue Kedgley should chill out and have a Kahlua bickie instead of
trying to ban them." The fifth link leads to an interesting graph provided
by the Australian Institute of Criminology that documents the changing rates
of alcohol consumption within the country from 1961 to 2000. Interestingly
enough, while the consumption of wine has grown significantly in this
period, the consumption rate of beer has diminished since 1975. The final
link will take visitors to the homepage of the Leadership to Keep Children
Alcohol Free, which is a unique coalition working to prevent the use of
alcohol, and which is sponsored by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse
and Alcoholism and The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. [KMG]
