DO IT YOURSELF: D.I.Y. - Students of women's history can find immense amounts of open-access digital material--much more than is linked to this page. To locate additional material, start with an advanced search on Google (www.google.ca/advanced_search) in which ".com" and ".net" are unwanted words and you request one or more of these words: ".edu" ".gov" ".org."
And be sure to visit RE/VISIONIST, published on line by women's history students at Sarah Lawrence.
