From an Announcement submitted by dmcinto1@sol.uvic.ca (Dale McIntosh):

   Music Education Resource Base (MERB) at   http://www.ffa.ucalgary.ca/merb/

On 1 February a new index to resources in music education was mounted on the 
World Wide Web (WWW). This resource (encompassing more than 25,000 records) 
has been more than 10 years in preparation and currently includes indices to 
20 journals in music and music education. Other resources (including monographs
and non-print materials) will be made available as time and funds permit. The 
resource is fully indexed by subject, author, and title and may be accessed on 
the WWW at the following address (or URL):   http://www.ffa.ucalgary.ca/merb/
It is currently being made available with the cooperation of CultureNet, an 
independent on-line Canadian arts resource. For those unfamiliar with the World
Wide Web, freeware browsers are available for almost all platforms on many of 
the on-line services. Particularly popular are Mosaic (MERB needs 2.5), MacWeb,
and Netscape. MERB will be available in test mode on CultureNet until 1 July 
1995 at which time its potential future as a resource in music and music 
education will be determined. Report any errors/omissions/suggestions/comments
regarding the interface/content to the resource manager: Dr. R. Dale McIntosh,
Arts in Education, U. of Victoria, Box 3010, Victoria B.C., Canada  V8W 3N4
