We would like to bring to your attention the launch of an updated UN Reform website http://www.un.org/reform/ . The information, cleared by the Secretary-General's Office, has been updated to provide the highlights of UN Reform from 2007-2008. The UN Reform site includes information about initiatives undertaken by the SG, and with Member States, in the areas of development, peace and security, human rights, humanitarian assistance and management. As with many websites, this is a living document, and will be periodically updated to reflect new developments. Language versions of the site will follow as soon as we can arrange for translations of the final text. There are links throughout the text to additional documents and information sources, including to websites of other principal Charter organs. However, as was the case with the previous version of the website, there is no discussion of Security Council composition and representation, or revitalization of the General Ass

Lorraine forwarded the following message from Aimée Herridge to USS: ... new UNOG Library Resource Guides can be accessed from anyone at the iSeek level now - http://lib-100734.unog.un.org/unsgwiki/doku.php?id=start They are also accessible via our Electronic Resources iSeek page - http://iseek.un.org/webpgdept883_2.asp?dept=883 Please note that these are still being developed. The most complete guides are United Nations, Human Rights, Disarmament and Social Affairs. We've conducted user testing sessions with our disarmament and social affairs researchers and received really positive feedback. Staff were happy to find resources in their field in the one place and were also impressed that we chose wiki software and would be encouraging interaction. Now we are completing the other guides, working on standardization (in hindsight, we should have developed templates and added content for each subject), translating french versions and then promoting the guides. Our long term vision
