State government listings are on the Regions of
North America Page, alphabetically by state. It's by no means a full
listing, but should get you to the top page of any State or Provincial
Government site.
Federal Web
- Villanova
Federal Locator. Loaded with references. A definite best of the
web.
- Try this out! Villanova's FedWeb Locator floating window! Push the
button if you've got Javascript.
- Office of Technology
Assessment Mirror at the National Academy of Sciences.
Be advised that the listings below are almost totally unorganized and
unstructured. I just list 'em as I see them, mostly alphabetically by their
main thrust or import or subject of interest.
Administration for Children and
Families.
- Bureau of Economic Analysis.
Uniquely informative and timely for a Federal Organization.

know?

more facts for the statistically and analytically inclined.

among other things, links to Educational Resources Information Center
(ERIC), and to the National Parent Information Network. Check this out for
anything to do with education, policy, goals, publications, grants etc. Also
has links to the Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC), and the

to get a start.

. Please see also the Medicine and Health
Page.
- Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
Rumor has it that this might be one of the most singularly boring websites
in cyberspace.
- Library of
Congress. I had to put this on another page. The Library of
Congress should be, and is, one of the more versatile resources on the Web.
It's also only going to get better... so, I gave it a page of its own.
- National Institutes of Health (NIH).
This will take you right to the heart of beautiful downtown Bethesda,
Maryland, where you can wonder exactly what the hell they're doing
in there.

Nation's Art Treasures are here.
- National Geodetic Survey. Maps
and all sorts of terrain data is accessible here.
- National Library of Medicine (NLM).
Great stuff. One of the smaller government sites, but one with the greatest
potential for expansion. Compare to the Health and Human
Services page.
- Peace
Corps.
- Pension Benefit Guaranty
Corporation Search Directory. You may have some money coming.
- Social Security Administration (SSA) Take
away the hassles of waiting in the office with a bunch of other annoyed
persons, and Social Security seems to be almost worth the taxes you pay.
- UNEP Environmental Assesment.
Federal Gophers.
These are not quite as pretty as the various Web pages, but they
generally contain all of the information that the web-pages have, and
possibly more. If you're looking for things of interest that might be too
obscure to make it onto a web page, try some of these.
- Nat'l Criminal Justice Resource
- FBI Gopher
- National Information Infrastructure stuff
- Office of Technology Assessment BBS public
FTP directory. Sadly, this might be down for good..
