You may have noticed that our website is down at the moment; we're in the process of transferring to a new host (and a new URL - http://www.wsrc.org.au) and building a whole new site from scratch, so please bear with us while we spend the next week or two figuring out how to use Dreamweaver and cobbling something together for display.
In the meantime, here are some things to read:
Feminism 101 (link courtesy of The F Word's blog). It is, as Jess points out, a bit US-centric, but it's still a work in progress and could become a great resource. Constructive comments and suggestions are welcomed; just click on the comments link at the bottom of any post.
The next Carnival of Feminists is due out on the 21st, so now is a good time to catch up on the archives!
Larvatus Prodeo's Feminism category - an Australian blog, regularly updated. Recent entries cover Santo Santoro's anti-feminist spending habits and women and WorkChoices.
Feministing, an excellent US-based blog (not always work-safe).
A recent Guardian article on new measures in the UK to prosecute against domestic violence, which includes the disturbing statement that "[f]or [British] women under 44, [domestic violence] is the most common cause of death - above both cancer and road accidents." (See also The Guardian's Special Report on Gender Issues.)
Don't forget that the WSRC is now open from 10.00am every weekday (until 5.00pm most days; 6.00pm on Thursdays), and that you can contact us any time on 08 8267 3633 (you can leave a message if we're not there or are on another call) or at womenslibrarysa@wsrc.net.au.
