Using Comserve in Communication Courses.
Neher, William W.
Comserve is an electronic information service comprised of several different components that can be useful to communication teachers and professionals with access to the Internet. Users can search a large number of files related to communication studies and research, locate those of interest, and have copies sent through e-mail for downloading. Comserve maintains several "hotlines," on-line discussion groups, and bulletin boards on areas of special interest. Currently, 24 hotlines are available for public discussion through e-mail. Comserve also makes available perhaps the most extensive index to articles published in a wide array of communication journals and provides on-line information regarding the annual convention of the Speech Communication Association. People with access to an Internet Gopher client program can use many, though not all, of the Comserve services through that connection. (A description of hotlines and a list of journals indexed is attached.) (RS)
