N1 - Funding Information:
Files describing the announcements are generally paragraph length and include the name, address, and phone number of the spokor and the deadline for applying. One recent announcement by the Education Department invited applications for research development and demonstration projects-to improve special education and services for children and youth with serious emotional disturbances, with special emphasis on prevention. Another notice from the Hastings Center listed an opportunity for 12 to 18 student interns to conduct research on ethical problems in the biomedical, social, and behavioral sciences. The American Cancer Society's Massachusetts Division announced a $15,000 grant for behavioral/ psychosocial research. A notice of grant support from the National Institute on Drug Abuse for research on treatment of drug dependence also appeared. Other recent funding announcements have appeared for topics such as ethnic minority gerontology, AIDS, cognitive neuroscience, behavioral therapies, inhalant abuse research, drug addiction, needle hygiene and exchange programs research, developmental studies of the cerebral cortex, and olfactory research.

N2 - Although many librarians are aware of electronic computer networks like the Internet and Bitnet, few realize the wealth of resources available in the field of psychology. Among the resources to be found are discussions of cutting-edge research, notices of seminars, conferences, employment, reviews, abstracts and bibliographies. To date, very little has been written about these resources, perhaps because tracking them down and monitoring them can be difficult and time-consuming. This study attempts to identify and evaluate the principle resources currently available in psychology on electronic networks.
