This guide, sponsored by the American Economic Association, lists
more than 1,000 resources on the Internet of interest to academic and
practicing economists, and those interested in economics. Almost all
resources are also described.

1.0 Introduction
1.1 Copyright
Resources for Economists on the Internet (RFE) is a copyrighted work
of the American Economic Association (the "AEA"). Permission to make
digital, electronic or hard copies of part or all of RFE for personal
or classroom use, Usenet distribution, or mailing lists is granted,
provided that copies are not made or distributed for profit or direct
commercial advantage and that whole copies show the following notice:
"Resources for Economists on the Internet (RFE), Copyright 1999

or implied warranty.
1.2 Format and Display Conventions
In general, the name of a resource links you directly to that
resource. The exceptions are mailing lists (the links go to the
descriptions here in RFE) and sections of this guide (which links you
to "index pages").
"Index pages" are the organizing theme of this format. Each lists a
number of similar resources. See "U.S. Macro and Regional Data" for
an example. In it, you will find the name of a resource (clicking on
it takes you directly to that resource), optional short descriptions
to the right of each name, links to extended descriptions on their
own pages marked with "[more]," and optional sub-groupings of
resources in RFE are in italics.
Entirely new resources are marked with a "new" icon, and
significantly updated resources are marked with an "updated" icon.
The table of contents page is a summary of index pages, but there are
no short descriptions. Again, each each name links you to the
resource, and "[more]" leads you to an extend description here in
RFE. Note that it a fairly large file.
A navigation panel is at the top left of every index page and
extended description. It show your current location in the guide,
links to the title page, the table of contents, and the higher-level
groupings of resources. If you are in an extended description, there
are links for the previous and next extended descriptions, as well as
the current index page.
Each extend description is a detailed description of that resource.
At the bottom of each you will find a link or links to the resource,
and some have e-mail contacts.

MAILING LISTS: There are two lists for the distribution of the ASCII
form: rfe-all, and rfe-summary. The first distributes the entire
ASCII guide, but the second list just contains the table of contents,
instructions on how to obtain the guide, and a few notes on major new
resources.
These two lists will only be used to distribute "Resources for
Economists," so there is very little traffic on the list.
To subscribe to rfe-all, send e-mail to Majordomo@wuecon.wustl.edu,
and in the body (not subject line) of your e-mail message, write
"subscribe rfe-all"
To subscribe to rfe-summary, send e-mail to Majordomo@wuecon.wustl.
edu, and in the body (not subject line) of your e-mail message, write
"subscribe rfe-summary"
To unsubscribe from either, send e-mail to Majordomo@wuecon.wustl.
edu, and in the body of the message, write "unsubscribe rfe-summary"
or "unsubscribe rfe-all"
E-MAIL REQUEST: Finally, we would be happy to send it out via e-mail
to all who request it. WE also encourage folks to obtain a copy from
one of the economics sites mentioned above. You'll find a huge amount
of other material of interest there.
1.6 Acknowledgements
We would like to acknowledge many who have commented and made
suggestions on this and previous issues of this guide. Without their
help, there would be fewer resources listed and the existing
descriptions would be more difficult to read. In particular, we would
like to thank Forrest Smith for suggesting this project, Hal Varian
for suggesting the web version, and Drucilla Ekwurzel, Thomas
Krichel, George D. Greenwade, Lauri Saarinen, Bob Parks, and
Christian Zimmerman for constant suggestions. Debbie Sharp provided
valuable research assistance during the 1994-95 academic year, while
Luis Hernando Herrera provided valuable research assistance during
the 1995-96 academic year. Paul Robbins provided valuable technical
assistance for the 1996-97 academic year, Chris Rasmussen provided
valuable research support for 1996-97 and 1997-98 academic years,
while Charlie Ring did the same for the 1998-99 academic year. Liz
Braunstein wrote code that supports RFE, and Colin Kuskie wrote the
Perl scripts that generate the HTML and ASCII formats from a custom
input format that we developed. I owe him a great debt. He is
available for contract Perl programming at <ckuskie@teleport.com>.
Finally, Bob Parks provided excellent support for RFE at its main
website and helped in many other valuable ways.
