and edit the graphics used in World Wide Web
documents.
4. A handbook that will provide you with
reference on creating an effective web presence.
5. a set of "templates" that will allow your web pages
to fit in with other cabinet pages and make your
information more readily available to the public.
We are looking for VOLUNTEERS in each branch that are
interested in this publishing project. These volunteers should
have access to a networked Windows Workstation or Macintosh
computer. Familiarity with Word Perfect 5.1 (or later) and DOS

We will hold two face-to-face meetings to get started.
A formal training workshop will be held in February with
UK computer scientists designing our web project.
