On Nov. 6, 1997, I wrote asking for information on virtual animal dissection on CD Rom. More than a dozen individuals responded. The library staff has given the information to the Science Department. I have listed a summary below. While one internet site can do virtual dissection online, the Science Department was not interest using this online program. Four companies were selected for previewing CD Rom material. They are: Scholastic Inc. 2931 E. McCarty Street Jefferson City, Missouri 65101 Phone: 1-800-724-6527 Software Title: Operation Frog Fax: 1-800-223-4011 only one program available Pierian Spring Software 5200 S.W.

Individual programs, Lab packs and Networks versions are available by these companies. I home this list will be helpful to those libraries considering this type of CD Rom program. This is by no means an endorsement of any one company. Programs will be previewed, assessed and evaluated. This is our high school's way of meeting student's needs to provide student centered learning for virtual animal dissection. Mary Bludnick, Librarian Monroe-Woodbury High School, Central Valley, N.Y.
