[SIGCIS-Members] References on computer hobbyists, user periodicals etc.

[James Cortada]

Thanks to those of you who were able to respond to this request for
information.  Some of my favorite sigcis e-mail is of this sort as I then
go and look at many of the citations mentioned.

I particularly like it when colleagues mention their Masters and Ph.D.
dissertations and provide a link to where we can obtain a copy.  This is of
extraordinary importance because it is incredibly easy not to be aware of
important research.  Therefore, I would like to suggest that if you have
not shared with everyone your dissertations, that you do so electronically,
if you can.  I for one have kept a copy of each dissertation that has been
made available through this sigcis so that there is at least one copy that
gets preserved outside of the normal places, and for European and Asian
dissertations, a copy in the USA.  I hope others do the same, particularly
at such institutions as CBI and universities.
