National AIDS Clearinghouse Guide to AIDS BBSes. Subject: Guide to AIDS BBSes Date: Apr 2 1993 (396 lines) U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Public Health Service Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CDC National AIDS Clearinghouse A SELECTED GUIDE TO AIDS-RELATED ELECTRONIC BULLETIN BOARDS INTRODUCTION This is a guide to representative electronic bulletin boards containing information about HIV infection and AIDS. This guide is not a complete listing of all AIDS-related electronic bulletin boards, but has been prepared as an introduction to the subject and can be used as a starting point to locate information. This document was prepared by the CDC National AIDS Clearinghouse; please notify the CDC Clearinghouse with any updates or additions. Inclusion of a service does not imply endorsement by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the CDC Clearinghouse, or any other organization. Electronic bulletin board systems, often called BBS's or bulletin boards, are computerized information services that are accessed by using a computer, modem, and telephone line. BBS's meet today's demands for current news on HIV infection and AIDS and provide a convenient means for information exchange among professionals, volunteers, and individuals involved in the fight against AIDS. BBS's can consist of any of the following features: electronic mail, bulletin board forums, searchable databases, and transferrable information files. Electronic mail is a convenient way of sending private messages to others using the same system. Bulletin board forums, sometimes called conferences, are interactive systems for posting public messages to groups of users connected to the same system. Searchable databases can sometimes be accessed through BBSs, providing a quick means of obtaining specific information such as bibliographic references, full-text articles, and information about organizations. Text files of information can be downloaded from most BBS's, then later edited and/or printed at the user's computer. Many BBS's provide gateways to national forums. Messages posted on these forums are "echoed" on networks linking BBS's throughout the country. Some examples of these forums include the FidoNet AIDS/ARC forum, the UseNet SCI.MED.AIDS newsgroup (available on all Internet nodes as the AIDS listserv), the GayComm Talk About AIDS forum, and the AIDS Education and General Information Service (AEGIS) network's AIDS.DATA and AIDS.DIALOG. To access a BBS, your computer (IBM-compatible or Macintosh) must be equipped with a modem (external or internal; 2400+ baud recommended) and communications software (such as ProComm, CrossTalk, or Red Ryder). The modem must be connected to the computer and to a phone line. It is preferable, but not necessary, to use a phone jack separate from any telephones; the phone and the modem can use the same phone line, but not simultaneously. CDC NAC ONLINE CDC NAC ONLINE is the computerized information network of the CDC National AIDS Clearinghouse and gives AIDS-related organizations direct computerized access to the CDC Clearinghouse and its information and bulletin board services. It contains the latest news and announcements about many critical AIDS- and HIV-related issues, including prevention and education campaigns, treatment and clinical trials, legislation and regulation, and upcoming events. CDC NAC ONLINE provides direct access to CDC Clearinghouse databases such as the Resources and Services Database of organizations providing AIDS-related services. The system also features electronic mail, interactive bulletin board forums, and is the original source of the AIDS Daily Summary newsclipping service. CDC NAC ONLINE users include U.S. Public Health Service agencies, universities, health administrators, community-based organizations, and other professionals working in the fight against AIDS. CDC NAC ONLINE is a free service for qualified non-profit organizations and can be accessed by dialing a toll-free number. For a registration form or more information, call the CDC Clearinghouse at (800) 458-5231. OTHER SERVICES Unless otherwise stated, services are free.

Lesbian/Gay Scholars Directory. From: "Louie Crew" Date: Tue, 2 Nov 93 11:06:05 EST I have compiled an E-Mail Directory of Lesbigay Scholars, with now more than 195 persons listed. To be included, fill out the form below and return it to me: lcrew@andromeda.rutgers.edu Do NOT send by snail mail. The E-Directory helps lesbigay scholars connect regarding on-going manuscripts, conferences, and other scholarly projects. I send the Directory to all who agree to be listed, with updates individual by individual. I also make available to one e-mail address by which those listed can post announcements of interest to the entire group. But this is not a discussion list per se--rather, a resource list. Please share this announcement with any friends who might be interested and with any other e-networks where forthright lesbigay scholars might assemble qua scholars. Thank you.
