Accomplishments of Subcommittee July 2000 – April 2002: (list should be comprehensive, list all publications, presentations, workshops, grants secured etc …)

Web site committee was founded about July 2001. Since forming, we have secured our domain name, a hosting service and web space. We have put up the conference information for the 2001 conference with frequent updates. After the conference, sections with general information about the NAG, other conferences, ordering and shipping information for the 99 and 01 proceedings and a secure Steering Committee only section were added. Sections that include valuable nutrition resources such as all published nutrition husbandry manual chapters and NAG technical papers have been added as resources both to the NAG and other zoo professionals. As a subcommittee, we are currently working to publicize the presence of the NAG site to groups that would be able to make use of our resources (AAZV, AZA, etc.). We are also in the process of working to put up membership information in a password-protected area (making the membership directory available), develop sponsorship arrangements to defray the costs of the web site and setup pages of links and other nutrition conferences.

Subcommittee plan for coming year: (include research, publications, presentations, workshops etc ..)

In the fall of 2009 the website will be updated to a new program and format.
