Please excuse any duplication you may encounter. I would like to announce the completion of v. 2.0 of the ASCII text version of "Film and Video Resources on the Internet." In addition to updating the guide, we have been able to create a new gopher and HTML document which are based on the guide. All three are now available on the Internet. (Please note that it may take us a few weeks to update the information contained in the gopher and HTML document to reflect the v. 2.0 update.) Contained in this message you will find: * access information for all three versions of the guide * information about the most recent revisions Thanks for your interest, and as always, Kristen and I are eagerly awaiting your feedback about the guide. We love to hear about new resources to include, and we want to make sure our information is as accurate as possible. Our new e-mail address for your input and requests is filmguide@umich.edu. All e-mail correspondence should be directed to this address. Thanks and enjoy!

Approximately 26 of these resources have been added since the last update in February, and one resource was removed due to its demise (FILM-L). * As we were working on the update, we found that some of the new resources did not fit into our existing organizational structure for the guide, so we decided to re-organize to fit the ever-changing character of the Internet. The new Table of Contents is shown below, with a + to indicate a new category of resource. ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction and Using This Guide Resources 1.0 Reviews 2.0 Discussions 2.1 Academic/Scholarly Discussions 2.2 General/Popular Discussions 2.3 Production/Technical Discussions 3.0 Filmographies/Bibliographies + 4.0 Audio-visual Library/Center Collections + 5.0 Special Collections + 6.0 Film Departments, Societies, and Organizations + 7.0 Film Scripts, Lists, FAQs, and Trivia + 8.0 Commercial Resources Appendices 9.0 A Note on the Terms 10.0 Index 11.0 Acknowledgments 12.0 Internet: Resource Discovery and Organization Project ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ * Institutional affiliations have been added when we deemed it helpful in indicating the source of the resource. * The section entitled "Databases" has been removed. All resources which were included in that category have been moved to other sections which better indicate their contents. For instance, CARDIFF'S MOVIE DATABASE BROWSER was moved from "Databases" to "Filmographies/Bibliographies," a category which is much more indicative of the contents of the resource. * Our philosophy is that each resource included in the guide should be available free of charge. However, included in version 2.0 of the guide is a new section entitled "commercial resources." These are resources which do involve cost in the form of video and laser disc retail. However, we decided to include them because browsing each resource is free, these resources reflect the evolving facet of business on the Internet, and they could be potentially useful resources to consumers and selectors. We should point out that we have not purchased anything from these retailers and thus cannot offer any comments regarding the quality of service or product. ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ END OF UPDATE INFORMATION ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ Lisa R.
