This WWW VIRTUAL LIBRARY (including all its subsidiary (and/or sister) pages on "coombs.anu.edu.au" server) has permanently ceased its publishing operations on Tuesday 25th January 2011.

All of the online resources reported here have been thoroughly checked at the time of their listing. However, it is possible that, with the with the passage of time, many of the originally reported materials might have been removed from the Internet, or changed their online address, or varied the scope and quality of their contents.

Fortunately, in several cases it is possible to access many of the older versions of the resources listed in this WWW VL. This can be easily done via the free services of the "The Internet Archive" http://web.archive.org/, a remarkable brainchild of Brewster Kahle, San Francisco, CA.

  • Jaringan Islam Liberal

  • This Indonesian language site is an outstanding source for information on Islamic issues. According to its guiding force Luthfi Assyaukanie, his aim is to work to present the aspect of Islam as a progressive, inclusive and liberal force in the Indonesian community.

  • PILI - NGO Movement Indonesia (Indonesian NGO Network)
  • A note on Islam for the uninitiated

    I am also aware that these WWWVL pages contain few explicit links to sites on Islam in Indonesia. And whilst I could compile an exhaustive list, it is simpler to refer people to that already created by Suara Hidayatullah Online. Be aware that the definition of a site as Islamic is highly subjective and that those on offer provide an extremely varied range of opinions. Remember too that Indonesia, whilst having a majority Muslim population, has substantial non-Muslim communities. - M. Laffan
