Artifact Overview

This book is a directory of grassroots resources for women in the 1970s: female-owned bookstores, collectives, women's health, birth control, pay equity, self-defense, crisis support, and single parenting. These types of pre-Internet publications share common ground with today's web--as information clearinghouses, business directories, connecting communities across a large geographic area.
