They are drawn from the larg _zither that responded to us inour efforts to build a netwt- connecting those concerned with women's educational e.i.ty. We chose organizations for inclusionbased on the following criteria: The organization must havewet en's concerns as a major focus. The organization must be concernedat least in part with educational equity; defined ratherbroadly, this includes providing or preparingtraining programs, workshops, conferences, seminars,curricula, materials, etc., that enhance women'scareers or self development. Efforts to educate or inform aboutwomen and educational equity, and efforts to implementexisting legislation and to advocate othersex equity legislation are also considered to be within the educationalarena. Section One of the Directory is madeup of two alphabetical listings: (1) national ard regional organizations and (2) national and regionaldirectories of resources. Section TWo is an alphabeticallisting of states and territories with someresources that are available in each. Among these are National Organizationfor Women (N.O.W.) State Coordinators, state department ofeducation sex equity personnel, and soma directories ofstate or local resources. The Subject Index to the organizationslisted in Section One is at the back of the Directory. Each organization is listed under one or more subjectheadings based on information furnished, in most cases, by theorganization. We encourage those groups andorganizations who are not 'listed in this Directory but who feelthat they meet the criteria listed above to sendus information for our Resource Library organization files. It will be used to update the Directory and to answer requeSts by users of theWomen's Educational Equity Communications Network.

  • Ann Arbor, Michigan
    Ann Arbor When John Allen and Elisha Rumsey established the town of "Annarbour" in 1824, the two land speculators named the settlement after their wives, both named Ann, and a grove of trees where the women preferred to meet. From that bucolic beginning, Ann Arbor has grown into a city of more than 110,000 people. It is home to one of the nation's finest public universities, and has become a industrial hub for a variety of commercial enterprises, from automotive design to pizza. Since its inception, the Bentley Historical Library of the University of Michigan has collected materials on the history of Ann Arbor and its residents. There are numerous collections that spotlight the city's culture, architecture, history, and a long tradition of social outreach. This guide is designed to inform interested researchers of the existence of unique materials currently held by the Bentley Historical Library. Listed are manuscript collections and selected publications reflecting the life, history and culture of Ann Arbor.
