[comp.mail.misc] Have/Want info on Internet/BITNET/UUCP.

dennie@venus.ucsc.edu (Dennie Van Tassel - Computer Center,31C,2434) (01/11/88)

I am looking for information on using the Internet/BITNET/CSNET.
If you know of any documentation on this subject, I would
appreciate hearing about it.
Since I am sure others are interested and so people
do not tell me about sources I already know about,
I will list some sources that I know about.

"Networks considered Harmful" by Dave Crocker, UNIX REVIEW,
Volume 5, Number 3, March 1987.

"Users' Directory of Computer Networks" available for $10.00
from Computational Center, University of Texas, Austin, Texas,
78712.

"Notable Computer Networks" by John S. Quarterman and
Josian C. Hoskins, COMMUNICATIONS OF THE ACM October 1986.

"Computer Networking for Scientists" by Jennings, Landweber, Fuchs, 
Farber and Adrion. "BITNET" Past, Present, and Future" by Daniel
Oberst and Sheldon B. Smith.  Both in EDUCOM BULLETIN Summer 1986.

I will post an updated list afterwards.

You might want to check out NetMonth, a monthly net magazine published
by the User Services Library at Yale. It's distributed in electronic
form from BITLIB@YALEVM.BITNET. 

To get on the mailing list for future copies, send a politely worded
note to Chris Condon (BITLIB@YALEVM.BITNET) and ask to be added to the
NetMonth mailing list. Remember, this is a REAL person, not a server
(besides the fact that Chris is a nice guy)!

NetMonth publishes all sorts of neat info about nets, new servers, new
features new mailing lists, etc, etc, etc.
