The Meta-Library: Social Studies Education

• VOTELINK is an ambitious interactive polling station published by Alexia Parks, an ex-Washington Post columnist in Boulder, Colorado. Each week polls on national issues are conducted for the U.S., Canada, Australia, and the U.K., as well as for certain U.S. states and cities. Pros and cons are provided before each vote, and you can view the results immediately afterwards. There's also a discussion area attached to each issue. Pulling the handle at the voting booth has never been easier.
• International Relations Research, an extensive set of primary source materials and reference guides.

Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse for Law-Related Education

This adjunct clearinghouse currently does not have an operational web site. Watch the above linked page where it is listed for its re-emergence. "To promote the widest possible dissemination of Law-Related Education (LRE) materials, the American Bar Associaton's National Law-Related Education Resource Center (ABA/NLRC) sponsors the Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse for Law Related Education in partnership with the ERIC Clearinghouse for Social Studies/Social Science Education (ERIC/ChESS).

The American Bar Association's Public Education Division created the NLRC in 1991 to collect and disseminate information on LRE programs and resources, substantive legal topics, funding sources, and teacher and resource leader training opportunities. Today, the NLRC serves K-12 community, college and university students, as well as the general public. NLRC produces newsletters, technical assistance papers, anthologies, bibliographies, and books on LRE resources, such as 319 Current Videos and Software for K-12 Law-Related Education."
