As the competition for funding increases, the need to make researchers
aware of all available funding is becoming more acute. The solution p
resented here is a Selective Dissemination of Information (SDI) servic
e which electronically mails funding information that matches a resear
cher's keywords. The keywords are part of extensive faculty profiles t
hat make up a Faculty Expertise database. The funding information come
s from the Sponsored Programs Information Network (SPIN) database. The
software enables researchers to learn about appropriate funding oppor
tunities without spending time actively searching for them.
