The October Issue of The Web magazine (on newsstands now) features a review of DRCNet's Drug Library web site. The Web rates sites from 1 to 5 (with 1 meaning "skip it" and 5 meaning "bookmark it") in three categories; content, design and links, plus an overall rating. The Drug Library got a perfect 5 for content and links and a 4 ("browse it") for design, with an overall rating of 5. (Just think what we could do if we could afford to hire a webmaster!)

Much of the credit for this terrific site (if we do say so ourselves, but wait, we don't have to, The Web just did) goes to DRCNet board member Cliff Schaffer, whose tireless efforts will have astonished us all for several years now. This one's for you, Cliff! (Cliff can be reached at [email protected].)

Accolades of this sort only serve to highlight how much has been accomplished even on DRCNet's small budget. We would love to hire a real webmaster to continuously update and improve DRCNet's web presence as well as to promote the site online. If you haven't yet donated to DRCNet, (or if you have but you find yourself with a couple of extra bucks in your pocket) this is a great time to do so. You won't find a more cost-effective investment in reform.

Checks can be sent to DRCNet, 4455 Connecticut Ave., NW, Suite B-500, Washington, DC 20008. Or visit our web site and enter your credit card donation on our secure, encrypted form at http://www.drcnet.org/drcreg.html. If all else fails, you can call the office directly at (202) 362-0030, and, as an added bonus, you'll get to speak to either Dave or Adam, who'll try not to sound too pathetically grateful for your contribution. And hey, thanks in advance!

You can find The Web online at http://www.webmagazine.com. Go to October '97 reviews, politics/law, Washingtoons section to read the review, or pick up a copy at your local newstand. You can find DRCNet's Drug Library site at http://www.druglibrary.org of course!
