Hello All,

We're putting together a collection of cd-rom databases to
support Wayne State's University affirmative action and non-
discrimination goals. Looking for cd-rom databases which will:
help better educate the campus and community concerning issues as
sexism, racism, sexual harassment, and problems of sexual
orientation; enlighten management on matters of equity in the
work place; help the University community understand quality
issues for protected groups; serve to eliminate tensions between
groups; and focus on careers and career choices for the disabled.

So if you have experience or have heard of a cd database that may
advance any of these concepts, I would like to hear from you.
Or comments concerning installation, search techniques, etc.
If persons would like to respond directly to me, I could
summarize for the list. Either way. Following are some titles, we
found beginning with the most related cd's.
