            _Bisexual Resource List_

This compilation of resources useful to Bisexuals is posted monthly
to newsgroups soc.bi, soc.motss, and news.answers, and to mailing
lists biact-l, bisexu-l, bifem-l, and gay-libn.

Additions and changes since the last-published version are marked with
a bar (|) in the left column.  Deletions (which will not appear in the
next version) are marked with a less-than (<) in the left column.

Please send dates of Pride Day (or nearest approximation) for all
locations you know about.

If you or anyone you know makes a media appearance of any sort
(newspaper, magagazine, radio, television, etc.) as a
bisexual-identified person, please be sure to send a copy to the
Bisexual Archives, c/o the Bisexual Resource Center (BRC).

Please help eradicate US-centrism in this resource list.  Please point
out listings which leave out the country, or otherwise assume that the
world revolves around the US.  For a description of some geographic
entities which are sometimes confused, send mail to [e-mail].

In price listings, "waged" means that you have a job; "unwaged" or
"concessions" means that you're unemployed, at school or university,
retired, etc.

Many lists of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), including this one,
are archived and available via anonymous FTP from rtfm.mit.edu in the
directory /pub/usenet/news.answers.  The name in the Archive-name:
line of the header is the name under which the FAQ is archived.  This
FAQ is archived as bisexual/resources.  You also may send e-mail to
[e-mail] with
  send usenet/news.answers/finding-sources
in the body to find out how to get files from rtfm.mit.edu by e-mail.

Please send additions and corrections and suggestions to Alan Hamilton
at [e-mail] or c/o BRC, P.O. Box 639, Cambridge, Massachusetts
02140, USA, including requests to have your email address listed in
the BISEXUAL ACTIVISTS EMAIL ADDRESSES section.  You may order a hard
copy from for US$5.00 from BRC, which also publishes various pamphlets
