Vol. 2 - No. 46 Dec. 4, 1998 A newly redesigned section of the Census Bureau's Internet site contains a storehouse of information about Census 2000 news and articles, plans and operations, promotional ideas, business opportunities and job postings. The United States Census 2000 page http://www.census.gov/dmd/www/2khome.htm is divided into the following six subsections: What's New; General Information; Partnerships and Promotion; Plans and Operations; Contracts and Procurement; and Jobs and Employment. With Census 2000 more than a year off, the Census 2000 section is still in the early stages of construction, but it already contains a wide array of information about the decennial census. Under What's New, links take the browser to a listing of Census 2000 news releases and drop-in articles that can be used in organizational newsletters or magazines. To be added in the future are partnership agreements with national media organizations, B-roll video clips for television stations, stock photos and the Census 2000 logo and taglines. The General Information subsection includes fact sheets on a variety of topics, reports on the census advisory committees, frequently asked questions, a glossary of acronyms, 1990 census data files and adjusted and unadjusted data from the 1990 census down to the census block level. Articles describing what partnership organizations, both governmental and nongovernmental, can do to promote the census, a list of partnership contacts at the Census Bureau headquarters and regional offices and a list of publications and articles fall under Partnerships and Promotion. The Plans and Operations heading contains the Census 2000 operational plan (April 1998), a report to the Congress, and discussions of sampling, address list development, congressional apportionment and legislative redistricting, as well as early reports on the Census 2000 Dress Rehearsal. Contracts and Procurement covers statements of need, requests for proposal, lists of bidders and other procurement information on Census 2000's major contracts: advertising services; automation infrastructure, data-capture services and data-capture system, data dissemination, laptop computer acquisition, telephone questionnaire assistance, etc. The job postings are for positions at headquarters and in the regional offices, at the data capture centers, the telephone centers and the National Processing Center in Jeffersonville, Ind. In the future, links to the Census Bureau's new data dissemination system, the American FactFinder, as well as to the American Community Survey and other Census 2000-related activities will be added to the Census 2000 page.
