Gainesville, FL : Florida Cooperative Extension Service, University of Florida, [1990]. p. 137-143, Throughout United States subject matter specialists at universities are conducting research, making new discoveries, and compiling findings. The ability for specialists to share research conclusions contributes to the subject matter knowledge base. Penn State rural sociologist, Dr. James E. van Horn, in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) extension program leaders, is compiling family life information into one location - a national database. MAPP - the Family Economic Well-Being National Database is housed in Penn State's information system, PENpages. This information base is used by Cooperative Extension professionals across America and has gained recognition as a vital resource for educational program development materials. (original)
