INFORMATION RESOURCES:
|
|
The secret to the wide range of information available on HFN
|
|
is the time and expertise contributed by the community.
|
|
Organizations all over Illinois contribute information which
|
|
is difficult or impossible to obtain from any other resources.
|
|
Information on the network covers a large variety of topics;
|
|
the listing of the complete menu is in the Administration
|
|
Building area of the network and is 25 typed pages long.
|
|
Topics covered include 108 areas of social services; a
|
|
complete year long community calendar; the American Red Cross;
|
|
the Boy Scouts; business help resources and statistical
|
|
information; extensive Senior information and resources; local
|
|
government information, including addresses of all elected
|
|
officials; legal data; medicine including chemical dependency,
|
|
mental, and hospital health services; tax; primary, secondary,
|
|
and post secondary educational opportunities; home and garden
|
|
subjects; historical documents and a library supported
|
|
reference desk; aviation; environment and recycling; personal
|
|
computer, religion and ethics; and travel information. Users
|
|
also have access to personal electronic mail and editorial
|
|
areas.
|
|
|
|
One of the most popular areas of the Free-net is presented by
|
|
Illinois Job Service which provides current listings of about
|
|
100 jobs. In addition, experts in all fields from law to
|
|
chemical dependency to the Red Cross to gardening contribute
|
|
their time and expertise to respond to questions asked
|
|
anonymously by the public. Specifically, the following
|
|
organizations are currently contributing information and

The amount and type of information available through HFN is
|
|
limited only by the imagination. The skill of HFN lies in its
|
|
ability to seek out pertinent information from credible
|
|
resources and to present that information in such a way as to
|
|
not inconvenience or burden the Information Provider while
|
|
making information easy to find and comprehend for the user.
|
|
All data is kept updated by the combined resources of the
|
|
Information Provider and Free-net staff.
