We advise you to look at those 6 websites first!

1)
Women's Studies/Women's Issues Resource Sites

A frequently-updated, annotated, selective listing of more than 450 information-rich web sites that focus on women's studies/women's issues.

In December '97, it won the Argus Digital Librarian's Award.



 2)
Gender-Related Electronic Forums

It, too, was highlighted by The Scout Report and selected as a highly-rated Argus Clearinghouse guide.



 3)
WMST-L File List

More than 80 files containing discussions from WMST-L, essays, bibliographies, film reviews, and other information that Women's Studies faculty and students should find of great value.
It contains 14 subject sections: Books and Films; Feminism(s) (including critiques); Feminist Theory/Theories; Girls and Young Women; Grad School/Job Market; Language; Men; Miscellaneous; Pedagogical Issues and Strategies; Program Administration; Race/Ethnicity; Sexuality/Sexual Orientation; Societal Issues in the Classroom; and WMST-L.

(> 550 syllabi), arranged by subject, and links to several other collections.



 5)

Links to more than 450 women's studies programs, departments, and research centers around the world. Annotations identify those programs offering graduate degrees or certificates.


 6)
Internet Resources on Women: Updates

A frequently-updated, annotated listing of new and changed web sites offering information on women of particular use to educators and students.
This is the rather extensive updates page to my 1997 book,
_Internet Resources on Women: Using Electronic Media in Curriculum Transformation_.
Like the book, it also includes information on some especially useful resources for using the Internet. It, too, is a highly rated Argus Clearinghouse guide.
