as possible. To that end, there are several search functions which will help you to find the information that is of interest to you.</P> <P><STRONG>1. The Subject Index</STRONG><BR> Entries in the Encyclopedia have been sorted into 22 subject areas. These appear on the left-hand side of the home page or may be accessed by clicking on the BROWSE BY SUBJECT links at the top or bottom of each page. If you click on any of these subjects (e.g. Health), you will be presented with a list of all entries in the Encyclopedia related to that subject. You can then click on individual entries that are of interest to you.</P> <P><STRONG>2. Entry List</STRONG><BR> If you wish to see all of the entries in the Encyclopedia, just click the link at the top or bottom of a page which states ENTRY LIST (A-Z). Once there, you will see an alphabetical listing of all entries. You can then click on the entry which interests you.</P> <P><STRONG>3. Contributor Index and Image Index</STRONG><BR> Do you want to know who wrote what? Simply click on the CONTRIBUTOR INDEX at the top or bottom of a page. You will then be directed to an alphabetical listing of all contributors. You can then click on individuals names to see the listings which that person has written. Similarly, if you are interested in the images which appear in the Encyclopedia, click on the IMAGE INDEX at the top or bottom of a page. You will then see all the images which are found in the Encyclopedia, sorted alphabetically. Click on the image, and you will be taken to the entry in which it appears.</P> <P><STRONG>4. Cross-referencing</STRONG><BR> Within individual entries, you will sometimes see words that are CAPITALIZED AND UNDERLINED. If you click on these, you will automatically be linked to another entry, which have more specific information on these words.</P> <P>If you encounter any problems in navigating the Encyclopedia of Saskatchewan, you can email us by clicking on the &ldquo;envelope&rdquo; icon that appears in the top row, to the right, on the home page.</P> <P>If you have any comments regarding a particular entry, you can send us your thoughts by clicking on the FEEDBACK FORM which appears on the left hand side of the screen.</P> </div></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" id="ftr"><div class=""> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width="100%" border=0> <TR> <TD id=btmmenu colSpan=4><DIV class="btm_box rounded"><A title="" href="home.html" target=_self name=Home>HOME</A> | <A title="" href="browse_by_subject.html" target=_self name="Browse by Subject">BROWSE BY SUBJECT</A> | <A title="" href="entry_list.html" target=_self name="Entry List (A-Z)">ENTRY LIST (A-Z)</A> | <A title="" href="image_index.html" target=_self name="Image Index">IMAGE INDEX</A> | <A title="" href="contributor_index.html" target=_self name="Contributor index">CONTRIBUTOR INDEX</A> | <A title="" href="about_encyclopedia.html" target=_self name="About the Encyclopedia">ABOUT THE ENCYCLOPEDIA</A> | <A title="" href="sponsors.html" target=_self name=Sponsors>SPONSORS</A><BR> <A title="" href="terms_of_use.html" target=_self name="Terms Of Use">TERMS OF USE</A> | COPYRIGHT &copy; 2006 <A title="" href="http://www.cprc.ca" target=_blank>CANADIAN PLAINS RESEARCH CENTER</A>, <A title="" href="http://www.uregina.ca" target=_blank>UNIVERSITY OF REGINA</A></DIV></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 6px; PADDING-TOP: 8px" align=middle colSpan=4>This web site was produced with financial assistance<BR> provided by Western Economic Diversification Canada and the Government of Saskatchewan.</TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><A title="" href="http://www.uregina.ca" target=_blank><IMG height=51 alt="University of Regina" src="assets/img/nav/UofR_logo.gif" width=235 border=0></A></TD> <TD><A title="" href="https://www.canada.ca" target=_blank><IMG height=51 alt="Government of Canada" src="assets/img/nav/canada_logo.gif" width=145 border=0></A></TD> <TD><A title="" href="http://www.gov.sk.ca" target=_blank><IMG height=51 alt="Government of Saskatchewan" src="assets/img/nav/sask_gov_logo.gif" width=145 border=0></A></TD> <TD><A title="" href="http://www.cprc.ca" target=_blank><IMG height=51 alt="Canadian Plains Research Center" src="assets/img/nav/cprc_logo.gif" width=245 border=0></A></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD style="PADDING-BOTTOM: 8px; PADDING-TOP: 6px" align=middle colSpan=4>Ce site Web a &eacute;t&eacute; con&ccedil;u gr&acirc;ce &agrave; l'aide financi&egrave;re de <br /> Diversification de l'&eacute;conomie de l'Ouest Canada et le gouvernement de la Saskatchewan.</TD> </TR> </TABLE> </div></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html>
