For those of you not familiar with veronica _TITLE_ searches you can  
get at that capability by connecting to the College of Natural  
Resources gopher at the University of Minnesota  
(mercury.forestry.umn.edu port 70) through the path "Search for  
Information/Searching on the Net/Gopherspace Searches using Veronica"

I just did such a title search using "forest or forestry or natural  
resources" and got about 200 hits. A subset of the "forestry" ones  
(34) are below. gophers are one simple way of coordinating  
information resources and it is clear from the list below that  
several organizations/institutions are already doing that. The  
College of Natural Resources tries to keep links to as many natural  
resources related gophers as we can find: connect to our gopher and  
browse "/Other Interesting Gophers"

++++++++++++++++++++

KEY (very roughly): After the INFO label is the gopher's common name,  
followed by a directory name (and possibly some other information),  
followed by the name of the computer on which the gopher is running  
and the port gopher is using (you most likely only need these last  
two items to connect your gopher client to the information server).  
As an example, to connect to "Social Sciences in Forestry  
Bibliography" point your gopher client at minerva.forestry.umn.edu  
port 70. If gopher+ is being used, the gopher administrator is  
identified after the ADMIN label.
