The National Science Foundation has set up a Custom News Service that allows an individual to select precisely the kind of announcements he or she is interested in receiving and, when those announcements are released, the individual will receive an email notification which contains the Web address of the full announcement. The full text of selected documents can be accessed on your own personal homepage, created for you by NSF, and resident on the NSF's server. The NSF funds research in a wide range of non-medical science, including social science. To set up your profile, go to www.nsf.gov/home/cns/start.htm.
