Since the secondedition of the directory was published over three years ago, hundreds of people have called CURA to update informationabout these organizations, to add new organizations, and, in some cases, to tell us that an organization no longer exists.In compiling this edition of over seven hundred entries, hundreds of people took the time to correct and complete theinfor- mation offered here about their organizations. Others have called to offer suggestions and comments about thelanguage and categories used in the directory. All this time and effort, each comment and call, have made thedirectory more accurate and complete. At CURA, Byron Dueck spent many, many hours in checking and rechecking the information to be includedin each listing. Chris McKee edited numerous drafts of the directory and provided oversight on the project. Louise Duncan provided her extensive database and electronic publishing skills.Will Craig offered useful suggestions about databases and web functionality. Another word of
