<center><b>WELCOME</b></center>
<B>Welcome to ICRIN</B>, a dynamic list of Internet accessible resources broadly related to the field
of injury research and control.  The resources are in the form of clickable hyperlinks to other sources and
documents somewhere on the Net.  New users may want to look at the ICRIN
<a href="icrins0.htm">slide show</a>
that presents an overview of the structure, content, and benefits of this site.<p>

If you know of other Internet resources that would be
appropriate, please fill out an <a href="forms/addurl.htm">Add Form</a> or post a message to the
<A HREF="mainhb.htm" >ICRIN HyperBoard</A> (bulletin board system) with
the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) address and a short description of the resource.
ICRIN will be updated at least monthly to reflect links to the new information.  ICRIN is a user of the

to detailed lists and descriptions.
Click on the highlighted |<a href="#index"><i>return to Main index</i></a>|
fields to return to the top of the index list. </B>
Non-highlighted terms do not yet have linkages or known Internet resources.
Please note that the nature of the Net means that some links are not always
functional due to heavy traffic, changes in address, or system closure.  If you do
not get a response from a particular link, try again later.  We will also endeavor
to remove non-functional links as soon as possible.  ICRIN takes advantages of some features
found only in the <A HREF = "http://home.mcom.com/info/how-to-get-it.html">NETSCAPE</a> version 1.1 (or later) Web browser.<p>

Give yourself time to explore all the links presented here.  There are many interesting sites
and resources best appreciated over several sessions.
<I>Enjoy and share your discoveries!</I><p>

Lists are topical areas one subscribes to.  Once subscribed, members
are automatically sent E-mail copies of all
communications sent to those lists.  Generally, one subscribes by sending an E-mail message to
the <b>List Server</b> containing the following information in the message area:<p>

<dl><dd><i> subscribe LISTNAME your_first_name your_last_name</i> <p><p></dl>

You then will get further instructions that tell you how to post messages to the <b>List Address</b>,
unsubscribe, find out who is on the list, and other capabilities.<p><p>

Some of the lists archive their discussions and place them in public directories.
If this is done (and we know about it), the message archives can be examined without
necessarily signing up as a member.  This provides a means to look at the list's content
and determine whether you are interested or not in becoming a member.
If the list contents are archived the YES entry in the <b>Archived?</b> column will be highlighted
below and you can click on it to see the archive.<p>

The table below summarizes the key information you need to contact each of these lists.
Clicking on the <B>List Name</B> jumps to a description of that particular list.
To subscribe you must send an E mail message to the
<b>List Server</b>, as explained above.  If your WEB browser supports "mail" and you
have your E-mail address handy, you can sign up for any of these lists right now by clicking
on its respective <b>List Server</b> in the table below.  There is also the capability to

<a name="Newsgroups"><p><LI><b>Newsgroups</b>
<dd>Newsgroups are less automated than mail lists and are generally  (but not always)
more public and read and contributed to by a more diverse audience.
If a newsgroup is established you generally have to
look at the postings, but you don't have to sign up to view the messages.
However, you may need newsreader software to take full advantage of newsgroups and
you must have access to a Usenet (NNTP) server.  Some WWW browsers like NETSCAPE
have newsreaders built in but you still need access to a Usenet server.  There are thousands
of newsgroups.  To automatically be sent copies of newsgroup messages related to a
particular topic, explore the powerful capabilities of Stanford's
<A HREF = "http://woodstock.stanford.edu:2000/">Netnews</A>
Information Filtering Tool (SIFT).  SIFT enables users without access to a
Usenet server to get filtered newsnet postings. Here are some Newsgroups of interest:<p>
