This booklist was compiled in recognition of the continuing importance of women's contributions to the Veterans Administration (VA) mission and in response to a growing interest in the subject on the part of both men and women. The list was designed as a general introduction to the concerns of women, their work and their place in society, and was compiled by the VA Central Office Library staff in conjunction with the Federal Women's Program Coordinator from the Office of the Assistant Administrator for Personnel. The majority of books are copyrighted since 1970.

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) mission in Mali asked USAID's Office of Women in Development for a gender study and a proposed gender plan of action in anticipation of its new country strategic plan (CSP) for the years 2003-2012. The mission's request complies with recent amendments to USAID's rules that require that new CSPs include gender analyses (ADS 201.3.4.11). More important, however, the request reflects genuine concern for addressing gender issues for efficacy; that is, to deliver effective assistance, and for equity reasons. Further, the study should enhance USAID/Mali's capacity to collaborate within an environment (for the government, civil society, and other donors) that is increasingly conscious of gender issues and of women's participation.

The Advisory Committee on Research on Women's Health (ACRWH), in concert with the Office of Research on Women's Health (ORWH) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Coordinating Committee on Research on Women's Health (CCRWH), provides the Director of the National Institutes of Health with a biennial report describing the comprehensive and coordinated efforts of ORWH and NIH institutes and centers to address women's health issues through research and related activities. This volume describes such activities supported in FY 1999 and 2000. This report also provides information concerning levels of support for research related to women's health and ancillary activities. The ACRWH believes that this report accurately reflects the breadth and depth of research and related activities through which NIH is fulfilling its mandate from the U.S. Congress to address women's health issues and women's inclusion in research.
