Any organization planning to submit a proposal in response to NSF 99-94
should read these Q/As.

A cooperative agreement of up to 5 years will be awarded to a U.S.
organization. Proposals are due on 2 June 1999.

Polar organizations in the United States and other nations will be
interested because NSF encourages proposals that provide for shared
inputting of publications to insure timeliness, completeness, and
efficiency.

The Antarctic Bibliography, established in 1962, covers all the
world's scientific literature regarding the Antarctic and the southern
ocean. The Bibliography on Cold Regions Science and Technology,
established in 1951, focuses on science and technology in the world's
cold regions.
