The ASA web site offers information on membership, journals and other publication, the ASA annual convention, undergraduate and graduate programs in the field, and other resources. The Scout Report for the Social Sciences Produced at the University of Wisconsin - Madison, each biweekly issue offers a selective collection of Internet resources covering topics in the field that have been chosen by librarians and content specialists in the given area of study.
