NNSC Announces New Edition

The NSF Network Service Center (NNSC) began to  publish
the  "Internet  Resource  Guide"  in  1989.  Its goal is to
increase the visibility of the resources that are accessible
via NSFNET and other parts of the Internet. It depends
on the population of resource providers on the  Internet  to
furnish the NNSC with the information for the guide.

The NNSC has recently finished an extensive update  of  many  of  the
entries  to  the Guide, constituting a
new November 1992 edition.  Charlotte Moors <nnsc@nnsc.nsf.net> who
performs most of this work under the current contract arrangement
with BBN hopes the
guide will inspire its readers to  submit  descriptions
of their resources for the guide.

If you wish to submit a new entry to the  Internet  Resource
Guide,  send a message to <resource-guide@nnsc.nsf.net>, and
the NNSC will send you a template and instructions  for  preparing
your entry.

The Internet Resource Guide is  intended  to  help  Internet
users  learn  what  services on the network are available to
them. Each  service  is  listed  in  a  separate  section,   which
describes  the  resource, explains who can use the resource,
how the network is reached via the Internet and  lists  contacts 
for more information.

The guide is distributed electronically by the NNSC. To  get
on one or more of the distribution lists for the guide, send
a note to <resource-guide-request@nnsc.nsf.net>.

+  The "text" list receives a Text (ASCII) copy  of  each
   new or updated entry in an email message.

+  The "PostScript" list receives a  Postscript  copy  of
   each new o updated entry in an email message.

+  The  "ftp"  list  receives  announcements  of  new  or
   updated  entries  that are available for anonymous ftp
   on <nnsc.nsf.net>.

Please specify which list or lists you prefer.
