A new electronic guide to glbt resources and organizations in northern New England is now available online. This is the third edition of the guide, collected and compiled by Rainbow Resources of NH, Inc. and the Gay Info Line of New Hampshire, but the first directory to be published exclusively on the internet as an Adobe PDF document.
      Just under 600 organizations, agencies and businesses are listed in this directory with electronic, phone and mail contact information plus a 50-word description for each entry. The Lifeline PDF guides are available for free download to anyone or any organization that requests them. Hard copies of the directory are available for $10 to cover printing and shipping costs.
      Rainbow Resources of NH, Inc is a nonprofit organization founded to provide free access to current information for and about the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community of New Hampshire. Any business, organization or group in NH, VT, ME, and northern MA can be listed in future editions of the Lifeline at no charge.
      The information is organized into 41 categories, from social to support groups, from spiritual groups and churches to publications and event organizers, from bars and restaurants to therapists, from real estate services to civil rights advocates, from domestic and sexual violence agencies to gift and retail stores, among others. Within each category resources are listed by state, town and then listed alphabetically by name.
      OITM participated in collecting information and distributing copies of the second edition of the guide in 1998.
