RFI: Reproductive Health Resources
----------------------------------

[Please reply directly to INTRAH - *not* to AFRO-NETS; DN Mod.]

Dear Colleagues:

The INTRAH Program is compiling a list of essential and core repro-
ductive health resource and reference materials for the use of train-
ers, training units, training resource centers, RH departments and
organizations, and international technical assistance agencies. We
seek and will acknowledge your expertise in identifying materials
that you/your organization consider essential and that you use and
distribute.

The list will be useful to those updating their resource and refer-
ence collections, as well as those establishing a reproductive health
reference collection. It's not intended to be exhaustive or compre-
hensive, but rather to constitute basic and gold standard materials,
arranged by category.

A list of reproductive health and functional categories follows.
Please cite references and resource materials, relevant to your and
your organization's specialties, directly onto the category list un-
der the appropriate category, including the title, author, date and
publisher. The citations can include print, audio/visual and CD-ROM.
You can insert your recommendations either into a reply to this e-
mail, or use a Word file attached. If using a Word file please save
changes send it as an attachment to <lknauff@intrah.org> or
<jcleaver@intrah.org>.

The list will be published in printed form and on-line, with acknowl-
edgements to contributors. Of course, contributors will be first on
our distribution list.

Thank you for your time and expertise. We shall appreciate your re-
sponse by the week of October 2, 2000.

With best regards.
