An updated, expanded resource guide to the role that women have played and are playing in the development of astronomy is now available on the Web site of the nonprofit Astronomical Society of the Pacific. The guide includes both printed and Web-based materials and has general references on the topic, plus specific references to the work and lives of 32 women astronomers of the past and present. All the materials are at the nontechnical level and thus are appropriate for student papers, curriculum development, or personal enrichment.
