Subject: New resources database

Hi,

Those of you who have been on the LITSCI-L list for a while know that I
periodically announce a revolutionary new database for syllabi or other
creatures.

Well, it's that time again!

This time, though, I intend to take the bull by the horns and lead the
way in adding resources. I may even periodically let you know about some
of the additions, although I do not intend to bother the list much with
it.

Still, as always, the point is to provide a location for you to share
your knowledge with one another. The database has areas for links to
your syllabi, your home pages, and your online scholarly works. There's
even a rubric for your online science-related literary efforts!

Please check it out at the LITSCI-L Resources Web page at:

http://www.law.duke.edu/sls 

I have links there to the Configurations Web site, the SLS Web site
hosted at Virginia Tech, the 2002 conference site, as well as archives
for and info about this list.

Wayne
