Linda, if you know anyone in STC, then borrow a copy
of the July/August issue of _Intercom_, the issue
that also has the 1995 salary survey. In it, on
page 12, is an article entitled "Tips for
Citing Electronic Media." It starts by saying,
"In April 1995, the search words "apa guidelines"
located thirteen documents related to this topic
on the World Wide Web (WWW)." Then it goes on
to give examples of many citations.
