Dear friends of MUSEUM-L, this
may be of interest:
At the Global Development And Environment Institute, Tufts
University, they are offering a new resource that may be of
interest. It is a very comprehensive Social Science Library
(SSL), and there is an online version but the entire contents
can be distributed in the form of both USB drives and CD-ROMs
(so it does not require internet access). For a brief
description:
This project is a contribution to the UN's Decade for Education
in Sustainable Development, and they are currently seeking
"distribution partners" to make this resource available to
educational institutions worldwide, especially the countries
listed here:
They still don't have distribution partners for the countries
whose names are in black. If you are interested in making this
available to schools in your country, please contact the SSL
staff for more information on how to obtain these materials:
Please forward this notice to friends and associates who might
be interested. I am not personally associated with the project,
but really think many schools in developing nations would
benefit.
