... introduction to a resource archive which depends upon user input to be of value to those who join in on the .network mission. Move on the Search for a Resource if this interests you.

The archive got started back in 2001. It was maintained more or less like a blog. Events of September 11, 2001 set off a period of having to constantly make changes in the operations of The Network. The archive became a place to store issues of a newsletter mostly about the changes. That was abandoned, however, in 2006 when the archive was changed to a repository of information about resources for supporting The Network mission. The archive became something for mission participants to reach into, contribute to, and share with others.
