IAEN Online Information Resources Survey

[Guest guest]

Dear Colleagues:

The International AIDS Economic Network (IAEN) provides data, tools and analysis

on the economics of HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment in developing countries,

to help developing countries devise cost-effective responses to the global

epidemic. Since 1997 the network has championed the use of new information

technologies - especially e-mail and the Web site at <http://www.iaen.org> - to

link researchers and the HIV/AIDS policy community world wide.

Nearly 140 of us have completed the IAEN Online Information Resources Survey --

thank you so much! The survey will be open through Friday. If you haven't done

so, please take a minute to fill it out:

<http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=42437176676>

If you would prefer to answer by e-mail, complete the survey questions below and

return to me. Thank you.

The results will be very helpful to all of us. We also know you are very busy.

To acknowledge your efforts we will randomly choose four (up from three)

respondents and provide $25 gift certificates to Amazon.com.

Thank you and best regards,

Jim Cashel
