Extractions: From NorthWestNet NodeNews , May 1994, Vol. 3, No. 1 Although the Oregon Trail bypassed the Klamath Falls area back in the 1840s, local medical professionals are finding that the 1990s information superhighway is coming right through town. Merle West Medical Center librarian Steve Rauch said the center's Internet access has not only changed the way he does his daily job, it has given him sources of information he didn't have before. "I access all of the National Library of Medicine databases through the Internet, as well as doing most of my other online searching and interlibrary loans," Rauch said. "One time I had someone in the library looking for genetic information related to Tourette's Syndrome and I was able to successfully use a genetics database to help him. . . . I don't think I've ever been in an environment that is as information rich as the Internet." Merle West Medical Center is one of a growing number of health care organizations using the Internet. Currently, the NorthWestNet community includes a dozen such organizations, ranging from major medical research institutions such as Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, the University of Washington (UW), and the Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU) to smaller sites such as Merle West Medical Center and the Alaska Native Medical Center in Anchorage. Merle West is one of seven community hospitals in the Northwest that gained Internet access through the "From Bench to Bedside: Research and Testing of Internet Resources and Connections in Community Hospital Libraries" project, a National Library of Medicine grant-sponsored program implemented by NorthWestNet and the National Network of Libraries of Medicine-Pacific Northwest Region (NN/LM-PNR). This program was established initially to allow smaller medical centers located in rural areas to expand their information access in a cost-effective manner. Now, many of the individuals who have Internet access at program sites are saying they couldn't imagine doing without the Net.
Extractions: The Pacific Northwest Region of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM PNR) stretches across the northern Rockies and Cascades and on up to Alaska. It is the largest in size, and smallest in population, of the NN/LM regions. This environment fosters both independence and interdependence among the region's communities and libraries. It is in this environment that the NN/LM PNR also known as the Regional Medical Library or RML has worked with hospital librarians as project coordinators to connect community hospitals to the Internet, the worldwide network of computer networks. This project has become known as the pilot connections project. Interconnected local area networks and wide area networks are relatively common in academic medical centers but scarce in community hospitals. Plans for this project were developed in 1991-92, when the importance of Internet for libraries and health care was beginning to be appreciated, but when access was still effectively limited to academic and research organizations. The project has been conducted in partnership with NorthWestNet the mid-level regional Internet service provider for six states in the northwest. NorthWestNet is a membership- based organization closely allied operationally with the University of Washington. Member institutions pay for Internet "connectivity" as well as value-added services, including a sophisticated and user-friendly UNIX mail program (PINE), and access to databases (e.g., the University of Washington Libraries Online Catalog, and all years of MEDLINE). At the beginning of this project, NorthWestNet was one of the very few brokers of Internet access in the northwest. Now there are many choices of service providers, mostly those providing dial-up online access for individuals, but also including those providing full service institution-wide access.

Extractions: [NSFNET] NWNETUSE.TXT NORTHWESTNET ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY NorthWestNet is a regional data communications network serving a consortium of universities and research groups in the northwest- ern part of the United States. Its goals are summarized in the Articles of Incorporation for the Northwest Academic Computing Consortium, Inc. All use of NorthWestNet facilities must be consistent with the goals and purposes of NorthWestNet. The intent of this statement is to describe certain uses which are consistent with the purposes of NorthWestNet, not to exhaustively enumerate all such possible uses. Some acceptable uses of NorthWestNet facilities include: o use for scientific research or instruction at member and associate member institutions through the provision of high-speed data communications; o use as a vehicle for scholarly communications; o use as a means for NorthWestNet members to access remote computing resources for the purpose of scientific research or instruction. Notable examples of such resources are the NSF supercomputing facilities; o use necessary to support other acceptable uses. For example, administrative communications which are part of the support infrastructure needed for research and instruction are acceptable. Similarly, communications directly between non-member institutions in support of research or instruction at member institutions is acceptable; o use required by agreements with NSF, the primary funding agency for NorthWestNet; o use by member institutions as a laboratory for research and experimentation in computer communications, where such use does not interfere with production usage. However, any experimental use requiring modification to router software or protocol layers below ISO layer 4 requires prior review by the Technical Committee. In general, commercial and general administrative use are prohib- ited. Use for scientific research or instruction at non-member institutions and at for-profit institutions may or may not be consistent with the purposes of NorthWestNet, and will be re- viewed on a case by case basis. Use of NorthWestNet for any illegal purpose, or to achieve unauthorized access to systems, software, or data is prohibited. NorthWestNet is a production communications network on which many researchers depend. Uses that significantly interfere with the ability of other users to make effective use of the network are not acceptable. 05/12/88

Extractions: Approved: 5/99 1. INTRODUCTION Networking has become an integral part of many businesses, college instruction, and K-12 education. Large scale networks (the Internet) and support tools provide the following services: information, communication, and resources. In a global environment, these tools and services are vital. O.C. Net is Oregon City School District's link to the Internet. O.C. Net provides E-mail services, sharing of printers, storing of information, and accessing data from servers. O.C. Net is connected to the Internet through ClackNet, Clackamas County Educational Services District's network. ClackNet is linked to NorthWestNet for access to global resources. Because the Internet is coordinated through a complex association of government agencies, regional, state and local networks, it is important that all O.C. Net participants adhere to the conduct defined in this policy. Mutual consideration for the rights of others by the users of O.C. Net is required to continue the smooth operation of the network.

Extractions: At the highest level, today's Internet consists of multiple national and regional Internet Service Providers (ISP) and interconnection points where the ISPs meet and exchange traffic. This infrastructure is similar to that of the old NSFNET, which consisted of a three-tier structure: Backbone network Regional networks Local/campus networks. On the NSFNET, regional networks would aggregate their traffic and "hand it off" to the NSFNET backbone. The regional networks comprised multiple local business and campus networks. Although there were many regional and local networks, there was only one backbone network. As mentioned in Section 2, the NSFNET has been decommissioned. In its place are multiple nationwide networks, which are similar to the NSFNET backbone network. Regional networks still aggregate their traffic and hand it off to the nationwide backbone network to which they are connected. Interexchange points (IXP) are located around the country where traffic is exchanged between national and regional ISPs. Peering agreements are used between the ISPs connected at an IXP to determine how traffic is routed. These service providers and interexchange centers are the main components of the U.S. Internet. This section will describe different elements of the Internet architecture and the different routing protocols used on today's Internet. 3. 1 INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDERS

Extractions: One of the most basic library skills is being able to read a citation. A citation presents standard information about a source (book, article, CD-ROM, professor, etc.) in a standard format. A citation "describes" an information source; at a minimum, it should include the source's title, author, and where and when it was published. The job of reading citations is complicated by the fact that our users do not always bring us complete citations (either because they copied it incorrectly or because their source noted the citation inncorectly). Reading Citations You will find two types of citations used more frequently than any others: citations to books and citations to short works inside larger works (journal articles, newspaper articles, papers from proceedings, etc.). The following examples are relatively simple and taken from a variety of sources. They may not follow a style manual. A book citation typically includes the following information in the following format: Author(Last, First), Title(underlined or italiced), publication place:
