There are two ways: via this website or via an e-mail request.</p> <p>On the website, go to the Document Browse page and find the document you wish to download. Select the <b>E-mail to me</b> link. The Document by e-mail window will appear. Enter your e-mail address in the white <b>Send To</b> box and select <b>Send</b>. The site will e-mail the document to you.</p> <p>To request documents by e-mail, find the document you want in your monthly custom e-mail digest. The document keyword is at the bottom of the document listing where it says <b>Request by e-mail using keyword</b>. Create a new e-mail message and enter "phidocs@phishare.org" in the <b>To:</b> line. Then enter the document keyword in the body of the e-mail. Please do not include any other text in the message. Send the e-mail. You will receive a reply from "phidocs@phishare.org" with the selected document as an attachment.</p> <a name="2"></a><h3>Browsing documents</h3> <p>To browse documents on this website, go to the Document Browse page by selecting the <b>Documents</b> button on the top menu bar. This page displays all available documents. You can move through this list using the scroll bar and the page buttons. </p> <p>You can filter the list of documents to narrow it to those meeting your interests. Select options from the four pull-down menus in the box at the top of the page-Topic, Region/Country, Language, Partner-and select <b>Update Results</b>. Selecting different options will limit the list to documents meeting those criteria. The more options you choose, the smaller the documents list is likely to be. If you select <b>Topic: Child Health/Survival</b> and select <b>Update Results</b>, for example, the page will display only those documents pertaining to Child Health/Survival. If you select <b>Topic: Child Health/Survival</b> and <b>Region: Asia/Pacific</b> and select <b>Update Results</b>, the list will narrow to only those documents pertaining to both child health/survival and Asia/Pacific. To remove the filter and display the entire list of documents select <b>Reset Filters</b>.</p> <p>You can also sort the list of documents. Select one of the three Sort By options in the gray box-Title, Date, or Number of Requests. Selecting one of the links sorts the current list of documents by that value. Selecting the same link again sorts the list in opposite order. For example, if you select <b>Title</b>, the list will sort alphabetically by document title. If you select <b>Title</b> again, the list will sort in reverse alphabetical order by title. The <b>Number of Requests</b> value shows the number of times users have requested a document, either on the site or via e-mail.</p> <p>If you wish to see more information about the listed documents, select <b>Show Document Descriptions</b> in the gray box. The site will display short descriptions of each document. To remove these descriptions, select <b>Hide Document Descriptions</b> from the same box. (The link changes depending on which option is selected.)</p> <a name="events"></a><h3>Browsing events</h3> <p>To browse events on the website, go to the events browse page by selecting the <b>Events</b> button on the top menu bar. This page displays all available events. You can move the list by using the scroll bar and the page buttons. You can also sort the list of events by title or date.</p> <a name="3"></a><h3>Registering your organization as a partner</h3> <p>Join Population and Health InfoShare as a Partner and share your research and ideas with a global audience. To register, select <b>Become a Contributing Partner</b> from the right side of any Population and Health InfoShare page. The Register to be a Partner page will appear.</p> <p>Complete the Information about your Organization section. <b>Type</b> represents the nature of your organization. <b>Country of Operation</b> represents your organization's "home" country. <b>Region</b> and <b>Country</b> represent geographic areas where you work. The logo image is your organization's logo in GIF or JPG format.</p> <p>In the Account Information section, enter an e-mail address for the account owner or main contact person in your organization. Enter a password and then re-enter it to verify. This e-mail address and password will serve as the user name and password for your organization or office. Under Admin e-mails, enter e-mail addresses of anyone else that you want to be notified when documents or events linked to your organization are added or modified. Enter only one e-mail address per line. For URL Short Name, enter a short name for your organization that will serve as a unique identifier for it. The short name cannot have any spaces or punctuation marks. The short name will also form the basis for a URL to your organization's description page; if your organization does not have a web page of its own, this description page could serve as one.</p> <p>When all the information is complete, select <b>Submit Request</b>. PRB will notify you when your registration has been received and again when it has been approved.</p></p> <a name="4"></a><h3>Receiving e-mail digests</h3> <p>You may elect to receive e-mail messages containing summary information about documents and events that partner organizations have recently added to Population and Health InfoShare.

To receive e-mail digests, go to the e-mail digests section at the right side of the Population and Health InfoShare website.

To select a contributor, select the name of the contributor from the drop-down list and the select Add. Repeat the select and add process for additional contributors.
