1. NSDL Scout Report for Math, Engineering, and Technology
The sixth issue of the third volume of the MET Report is available. Its
Topic in Depth section offers Web sites and comments about Technology and
the Global Economy.
====== Research and Education ====
2. The Vietnam Project [pdf, RealOne Player]
http://www.vietnam.ttu.edu/
A number of online archives exist already to remember major military
conflicts (particularly for World War II), so it is fitting that the Vietnam
War also have a significant web presence. Designed by a dedicated team at
Texas Tech University, the Virtual Vietnam Archive "enables scholars,
students and all interested in this remarkable period in our world history
to conduct research directly from universities, schools, libraries, and
homes." Currently, the project contains over 1.5 million pages of materials
online, ranging from photographs, slides, audio and video recordings, and a
number of oral histories. The search engine for the archive is quite
powerful and simple to use, and allows users to specify dates, media format
desired, language, and document title. While the site doesn't offer any
thematically organized collections per se, there is a real wealth of
material here. One particular highlight is the number of oral history audio
files online here. These are drawn from a number of persons involved with
the Vietnam War in a number of capacities. Additionally, visitors will want
to check out the wealth of material related to the proceedings and history
of the Vietnam Project, including newsletters and project updates. [KMG]
3. The Rise of New Immigrant Gateways [pdf]
http://www.brookings.edu/urban/pubs/20040301_gateways.pdf
Many urban areas in the United States continue to add population to their
respective locales by serving as gateway communities for the millions of
immigrants who come to live in the country every year. This recent report
published by the Brookings Institution, and authored by Audrey Singer,
demonstrates a rather intriguing pattern by which certain cities (such as
Chicago and San Francisco) have effectively served as immigrant conduits for
over a century; whereas other American conurbations, such as Cleveland, were
only able to garner large streams of immigrants in the early 20th century.
The 36-page report discusses the nature of both former gateway cities as
well as drawing on Census 2000 data to look at the emergence of new
immigrant gateway cities such as Atlanta, Dallas, and Washington, DC. The
report also reveals several other notable findings, such as the fact that by
2000 more immigrants in metropolitan areas lived in suburbs than cities, and
their growth rates there exceeded those in the cities. [KMG]
4. Advanced Placement Digital Library
http://apdl.rice.edu
In collaboration with the College Board, Rice University has developed this
very helpful online digital library for high school Advanced Placement (AP)
students and teachers of biology, physics, and chemistry. Through the
website, students and teachers alike can access these materials (after
filling out a free registration form), and use them at their own leisure and
adopt them for individualized learning plans. These online resources are
selected through a review panel that includes a higher education faculty
member with in-depth knowledge of the AP curriculum, five AP teachers, two
project context experts, and an undergraduate student who is studying the
subject at the university level. The material itself made available here
contains a topic outline for each subject, with extensive hyperlinks to the
collected resources. Finally, visitors can also read about the members of
the Advanced Placement Digital Library Review Panel and their backgrounds.
[KMG]
5. DreiserWebSource [RealOnePlayer]
http://www.library.upenn.edu/collections/rbm/dreiser/
Designed and maintained by the Annenberg Rare Book and Manuscript Library
Collection at the University of Pennsylvania, the DreiserWebSource website
brings together a host of written ephemera, original essays, and electronic
texts related to the life and writings of Theodore Dreiser, the prominent
American author. While the site doesn't have a formal search engine, the
material is divided into four primary sections: Correspondence & Texts,
Scholarly Essays, Reference Sources, and Still and Moving images. The
Correspondence & Texts section is a delight unto itself, as it contains a
host of digitized correspondence between Dreiser and colleagues over several
decades and a special section dedicated to his ground-breaking novel, Sister
Carrie. Along with several editions of the complete novel there are several
essays about the novel's composition and historical context, along with a
virtual exhibition curated by Nancy M. Shawcross from the Rare Book &
Manuscript Library at Penn. The site also includes a rare 3-minute silent
film of Dreiser from 1938 at Mt. Kisco, New York, taken by Robert Elias.
[KMG]
6. Cogprints [pdf]
http://cogprints.ecs.soton.ac.uk/
Utilizing technology generated by the University of Southampton, Cogprints
is an electronic archive for self-archive papers in a number of scientific
areas of study. Some of these areas include psychology, neuroscience,
linguistics, numerous areas of computer science, philosophy, biology,
anthropology, and several others. Currently, the archive contains over 1200
papers ranging from 1950 to 2004. The search options for the database are
quite extensive, as visitors may initiate a simple search, or perform an
advanced search, which features 13 search fields. While papers are contained
in a number of academic fields, the archive is particularly strong in the
areas of artificial intelligence and philosophy of the mind. Visitors
looking to post their own work to the site will need to register for a free
account, and if they encounter any problems, may feel free to consult the
help section provided here. [KMG]
7. The Digital Human [MS Word]
http://www.fas.org/dh/index.html
The Digital Human is an Open Source Software Consortium that uses
information technology tools to simulate and represent the body's processes,
such as the functions of DNA molecules and proteins to cells, tissues,
organs, and gross anatomy. In an effort to develop a community where
researchers can share their work, the website provides links to various
research centers and their work on simulations, visualizations and
engineering models. Another aspect of the consortium is "to allow biomedical
researchers and computer scientists to work effectively together to develop
a language that will allow this to happen." Proceedings from conferences
addressing these issues are available from this website. [VF] This site is
also reviewed in the March 12, 2004 _NSDL MET Report_.
8. Elections 2004
http://www.lib.umich.edu/govdocs/elec2004.html
Every presidential election in the United States gives rise to greater
legions of so-called "spin doctors," and a number of pundits offering their
opinions on the chances of each candidate who has thrown their hat in the
ring. Fortunately, the University of Michigan Documents Center has developed
this helpful and informative website that culls together hundreds of useful
websites about the upcoming presidential election of 2004. From the homepage
visitors can look through a number of helpful sections devoted to listing
sites dedicated to such topics as Policy Issues, Candidates, and Campaign.
Within each of these broad thematic areas are contained more specific areas
dedicated to links on important subtopics such as campaign finances, media
coverage, terrorism, economics, and many others. Scholars will want to take
a look at the Academic Research section, which contains links to online
periodical databases and some links to sites with recent working papers on
the subject.
9. ippr: istitute for policy research
http://www.ippr.org.uk
Launched in 1988, the ippr is a well-known British think tank committed to
producing high quality research in a number of important sectors, including
media, asylum and migration, and transport issues. As the website notes,
"Our aim is to continue a be a force for change by delivering far-reaching
and realistic policy solutions that we hope will produce a fairer, more
inclusive and more environmentally sustainable world." The homepage allows
visitors to view a calendar of upcoming events hosted by the group, read its
most recent press releases, and find out about new and forthcoming
publications. Most visitors will find the Research section most compelling,
as here they may find general information about the group's ongoing research
agenda, which ranges from work on the digital society to substantial work on
social policy. [KMG]
====== General Interest ====
10. ABC Arts Online: Winged Sandals [Macromedia Flash Reader]
http://www.wingedsandals.com/
The Scout Report has profiled numerous sites on the vast world of Greek
mythology before, but this most recent site is perhaps the most enchanting
and visually stimulating so far. Winged Sandals, produced by the Australian
Broadcasting Corporation (in association with The University of Melbourne's
Centre for Classics and Archaeology), takes visitors through the world of
Greek mythology with a number of Flash-enabled movies, intriguing games, and
quizzes. Visitors are led through the site by Hermes (appropriately enough,
as he is the messenger god), and are transported above the city of ancient
Athens, to various locales. The Storytime section is particularly lovely, as
visitors can watch retellings of such important tales as the acquisition of
the oracle at Delphi by Apollo or the story of Perseus's encounter with
Medusa. Also of note is the games section which allows visitors the
opportunity to charm Cerberus with music and to create their own musical
creations in Groove Pentatonica. Designed for children age 6 to 12, this
website is a fine teaching aid and a real delight for young people and
adults. [KMG]
11. The Tibetan & Himalayan Digital Library (THDL)
http://iris.lib.virginia.edu/tibet/frameset.html
As stated on the home page, "The Tibetan & Himalayan Digital Library is an
international community using Web-based technologies to integrate diverse
knowledge about Tibet and the Himalayas for free access from around the
world." In other words, visitors to THDL can expect more than an image
database and digital documents, although these materials are present. The
Guide to Resources, accessed by choosing the First Time Visitors link,
provides an overview of THDL resources grouped into broad categories (that
appear as images on the homepage) including: Collections, Reference,
Community, Education, and Tools. Collections are further organized by
format, such as audio, video, or GIS-technology based materials including a
gazetteer and maps of Tibet, Asia, Lhasa and Sera. There are multimedia
collections based on the work of a particular individual, such as Frederick
Williamson, a British political officer who took about 1700 photographs of
Tibet in the 1930s. Also included are thematic collections such as
Architecture, Art, Literature, History; Interactive maps and models, such as
a 3D interactive model of Meru Nyingba Monastery (Lhasa, Tibet); and
electronic journals. There are a number of resources to assist with Tibetan
languages, such as translators and dictionaries, and digital tools for
displaying fonts, and the Community section provides discussion forums,
email lists, Blogs, and links to associations and individuals of interest.

12. World Trade Center Site Memorial Competition [pdf,RealOnePlayer]
http://www.wtcsitememorial.org/
Reconstruction of the World Trade Center site has begun in earnest in Lower
Manhattan, and many people are looking forward to see the transformation of
the site move forward. While the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation was
responsible for launching the largest design competition ever to elicit
submissions for the World Trade Center Site Memorial, only recently have all
of the submissions been put online for the general public. Here visitors can
look at all of the 5201 submissions, which came from 63 nations and 49 U.S.
states. Each submission may be viewed in its entirety, and visitors may also
read more detailed information about the seven finalists. Additionally,
there is detailed information about the winning entry, Reflecting Absence,
which was submitted jointly by Michael Arad and Peter Walker. Finally,
visitors may browse through a detailed archive of press releases related to
the official competition. [KMG]
13. Beyond Compare: Women Photographers on Beauty [Macromedia Flash Reader]
http://www.dovebeyondcompare.ca/
Sponsored by the Dove Company, this online exhibit designed to showcase the
work of women photographers and photos of beauty complements a ongoing photo
exhibition that is making its way through Canada during the spring of 2004.
As the website notes, "The exhibit speaks to the uniqueness of each artist's
interpretation of beauty. Each photograph is beyond comparison-beautiful on
its own terms. These images which depict confidence, individuality and
character are also accompanied by an anecdote or quote that explains the
photographer's vision." The photographs displayed online here come from
around the world, and include the work of such notable photographers as
Annie Leibovitz, Tierney Gearon, and Peggy Sirota. While looking through the
photo galleries, visitors can also stop to read the story behind each image,
and read different comments made by the photographers as well. [KMG]
14. The Dayton C. Miller Flute Collection
http://www.memory.loc.gov/ammem/dcmhtml/dmhome.html
Dayton C. Miller grew up on a small farm in Ohio in the middle years of the
19th century, and later became a well-regarded acoustician and physicist,
and an avid collector of flutes and related musical instruments and
ephemera. In 1941, in his bequest, Dayton Miller donated his massive
collection of more than 1700 flutes and other wind instruments to the
Library of Congress. In order to offer greater distributed public access to
this trove of material, the American Memory Project at the Library of
Congress has created this interesting archive of Mr. Miller's extensive
collection. Here visitors can search or browse through some of the many
wonderful instruments collected by Miller during his lifetime, including a
number of rare crystal flutes, a 22-karat gold flute designed by Miller
himself, and a flute presented to President James Madison. Along with
looking through this archive, visitors will want to take a look at some
other presentations on the site, such as a section titled Fife vs. Band
Flute, which looks at the substantial differences between the two
instruments, and one of the more than 3000 books and pamphlets contained
within the collection, titled The Pleasant Companion: or New Lessons and
Instructions for the Flagelet from 1680. [KMG]
15. National Portrait Gallery
http://www.npg.org.uk/live/index.asp
Founded in 1856, the National Portrait Gallery in London was established to
collect the likenesses of famous British men and women. For persons with a
penchant for portraiture, this website will be a welcome addition, and one
with enough material to merit a number of extensive visits. Besides
information about visiting the Gallery (which is available in several
languages, including German and Japanese), visitors will delight in the fact
that they can search the entire collection of 50,167 portraits online here.
In all fairness, only 28,539 of this total number are illustrated, but
that's still quite impressive, as visitors can look at renderings of Samuel
Johnson, Henry VIII, and other luminaries. Visitors to the site can also
browse the Gallery as if they were there, by selecting any one of the rooms,
organized by century. The site is rounded out by a nice selection of special
website features, such as the most recent one added to the site, which deals
with well-known Britons of the past 100 years. [KMG]
16. The Massachusetts Historical Society
http://www.masshist.org
>From its auspicious beginnings in 1792, the Massachusetts Historical Society
(MHS) has grown to be one of the major historical research libraries and
manuscript repositories in New England. Along with its public outreach
programs (which visitors can learn about on the site), the society also
offer a number of fellowship programs for visiting scholars and persons
interested in utilizing its collections. For persons interested in doing
research at the society, there are over 51 digitized online finding aids
available here as well, along the ABIGAL online catalog which may also prove
useful. From the homepage, visitors can also view the Object of the Month
feature, which gives detailed information and a digitized image of an
important object in the Society's holdings, such as a dramatic photograph of
the Boston & Albany passenger train from 1885. Of course, users will not
want to miss the fine online resources here, including the electronic
archive of correspondence of the Adams Family (including those legendary
letters between John and Abigail Adams) and the wonderful electronic archive
that contains many original documents and papers from Thomas Jefferson in
the collection of the MHS. [KMG]

A History of International Women's Day
http://www.isis.aust.com/iwd/stevens/contents.htm
WHO: Women's Health
http://www.who.int/health_topics/womens_health/en/
With historical origins dating back to the early 20th century, International
Women's Day has been officially celebrated since 1977, when the United
Nations made a special declaration setting the date in early March every
year. This year saw a flurry of important events around the world that
coincided with March 8th, including ceremonies designed to honor women of
national and international importance in many countries and a number of
valuable statements made on behalf regarding the cause of gender equality. A
number of prominent women also gave speeches this Monday, including Nobel
Peace Prize laureate Shirin Ebadi, who noted that "The rights of women and
democracy are one and the same." A study released this past Monday by the
Inter-Parliamentary Union noted that women make up a record-breaking 15.3
percent of the world's lawmakers. The country with the greatest percentage
of female lawmakers is Rwanda (49 percent), followed closely by Sweden, with
45 percent. While there was much to celebrate, there were also some ominous
trends noted by lawmakers and officials, including the rapid and disturbing
increase of young women with HIV around the world in the past few years, a
fact noted by UN Secretary General Kofi Annan during his remarks to a
special UN session.
The first site will take visitors to a news piece from the Baltimore Sun
that contains Shirin Ebadi's remarks made on International Women's Day. The
second link leads to a news piece from Al-Jazeera that discusses the rapid
increase of HIV among young women, a public health issue that is becoming
endemic in certain parts of the developing world. The third link leads to an
article from the Cornell (University) Daily Sun that offers details on a
celebration honoring women on their campus who had worked to improve the
situation of women locally, nationally, and internationally. The fourth link
will take visitors to the rather comprehensive website for International
Women's Day 2004 created by the United Nations. The site contains
information on the events sponsored by the UN and its Women Watch website,
which serves as a clearinghouse for resources on gender equality and
empowerment of women. The fifth link will take users to a good history of
International Women's Day, created by Joyce Stevens for the Australian
Women's Intra Network. The final link leads to a well-honed site developed
by the World Health Organization to highlight its own work on women's health
(including special sections on work in Southeast Asia) and to bring together
a number of useful fact sheets and related web-based resources. [KMG]
