Resources for population studies on the World Wide Web.
Issues, No. 37, Oct 1996. 47-53 pp. Melbourne, Australia. In Eng.
"The aim of this article is to give readers a brief
introduction to the array of population resources available on the
World Wide Web (WWW) part of the Internet....The development of the
World Wide Web has dramatically improved the resources available for
all aspects of population studies....In some cases, the improvement has
been through the creation of totally new resources. More commonly,
though, the improvement has been one of accessibility; that is,
resources that were previously available in hard-copy form but
difficult or impossible to obtain are now openly and (in most cases)
freely available to Web users."
