About the 
Maine Guide to Using the Internet for Substance Abuse Prevention
Note: This Guide is grounded in listening – listening to people in community-based groups, schools and offices; listening to feedback from people with varying degrees of experience with the Internet who field-tested the Guide; and listening to people with expertise on using and searching the World Wide Web. We hope you will find it useful . . . and maybe even enjoyable. The World Wide Web is constantly evolving. Information that is available on a website can change over time and the websites themselves can change their addresses or even cease to exist. The websites mentioned in this Guide are meant to provide a useful starting point for searching for information and should not be thought of as being all-inclusive. They were chosen at this time as being helpful, but we cannot guarantee that they will meet the needs of everyone. As you begin your searches, you may well come up with better, more useful websites. Also bear in mind that the Web, though a vast resource, does not contain everything. The books and journals in a good library, with the help of a research librarian, are sometimes your best sources of information. Many librarians can also help you navigate the Web. We hope that, at the very least, this Guide can give you a good start! |
