"The Asian Studies WWW Monitor" (ISSN 1329-9778) was originally established 21 April
1994 under a title "What's New in WWW Asian Studies" as a part of the Asian Studies
WWW Virtual Library
"The Asian Studies WWW Monitor" is published by the Internet
Publications Bureau, Research School of Pacific and
Asian Studies at the Australian National University (ANU). The Journal regularly
monitors new developments in the Asian Studies' cyberspace and
compiles timely, accurate, consistent and impartial summaries and evaluations of the latest web
sites and other online information systems relevant to social sciences
research of the Asia and the Pacific region.
"The Asian Studies WWW Monitor" acts as a current awareness bulletin
for a broad range of readers: academics, students, librarians,
journalists, business people, government administrators and the wider on- and off-line
community.
All resources listed below are inspected and
rated in terms of the scholarly/factual quality and usefulness of their content
to the Asian Studies' research.
All ratings reflect the Editor's judgment
without 'fear or favour', and are not negotiable.
Also, all links are categorized according to the following system:
(1) News (information about recent events; postings of mailing lists);
(2) Documents (numerical data, translations of documents,
photographs, images, maps, bibliographies, databases
with raw textual information);
(3) Study (interpretations, analyses, discussions);
(4) Corporate Info (details of individuals, organisations, institutions, events [eg. conferences]);
(5) Online Guides (catalogs of online resources, databases of links).
Details of location,
nature and usefulness are correct for the date each of the networked
site was accessed, inspected and evaluated by the Journal. Naturally,
due to the great volatility of the Internet, it is possible that
details of the resources identified below might have changed since the
time they were reported by this Journal.
Daily announcements and contents' summaries published in the web
edition of the Journal are disseminated also on the network via a
mailing list.
